JUKI error E731: Motor encoder error (U/V/W)

Motor encoder error (U/V/W). The U, V, W position signals from the main motor are missing. Same family of fault as E730.

Shown on JUKI machines including 910N, AMS-210E, AMS-210EN, AMS-221EN, AMS-224EN, AMS-251, AP874, AP876, APW-895N, APW-896N, DDL-8700B, DDL-9000CF and others.

What to check

  1. Check the encoder cord and connector at the SDC board; replace the encoder or motor if needed.

Switch the machine off before touching any connector. If the code comes back after these checks, the fault is usually in the servo motors or control boxes, PCBs and sensors.

Frequently asked questions

What does JUKI error E731 mean?

Motor encoder error (U/V/W). The U, V, W position signals from the main motor are missing. Same family of fault as E730.

How do I fix JUKI error E731?

Check the encoder cord and connector at the SDC board; replace the encoder or motor if needed. If the code stays, the fault is usually in the servo motors or control boxes, PCBs and sensors.
