Common Centurion faults
- Not responding to remotes or keypad
- Status light flashing or buzzer warning

- Motor humming but not moving
- Battery not charging
- Dead board after a storm or power surge

PC board and control card repairs
The control card is the brain of your motor. Lightning, surges and insects nesting in the housing are the usual culprits when it fails. We repair Centurion PC boards and control cards rather than automatically replacing them, which can save you a lot compared with a new motor.
Tip: keep the area around your motor clear and treat it for ants. It’s one of the simplest ways to prevent board failures.
Repair or upgrade to SMART+?
If your motor is old or failing repeatedly, upgrading to a current Centurion SMART+ model can make more sense than another repair. We’ll give you both options so you can decide. See installations & upgrades.
Remote or keypad problem rather than the motor? See gate remotes & keypads.
Frequently asked questions
Do you carry Centurion parts?
Yes. Centurion makes most gate motors in South Africa, so we carry most Centurion parts on our vehicles and can fix the majority of faults on the first visit.
Can you repair a Centurion PC board?
Yes. We repair Centurion PC boards and control cards damaged by lightning, power surges or ants. A board repair is often much cheaper than replacing the motor.
Should I repair my old Centurion motor or replace it?
If the gearbox and motor are sound, a repair usually makes sense. If the motor is very old or keeps failing, we’ll quote for a SMART+ upgrade so you can compare.

The D5-Evo, D6, D10 and D20 sliding motors, R6 and VANTAGE swing motors, SDO5 and RDO garage motors, and older Centurion models.
