An investigation was made into the cause or causes of uneven drive rates during operation of the Apollo 16 scanning telescope. It was suggested that such erratic behavior was caused by either changes in the characteristics noise level of the optics counter on the panels or the repositioning process by the computer or zero optics mode. Test results show the anomaly was not caused by either of the above suggestions, instead they were caused by a broken socket spring in the telescope harness. New harnesses will be manufactured for future flights.
