It's possible you may have a bad connection. Try this, find a short wire like 6 ft (RG6) and connect it from your receiver to your motor. If that doesn't work, you may have a bad motor. 75 ft is not an issue; I have at least 120 ft of cable between the receiver and motor. If you have a friend with a good motor, you can try to swap it out, if it doesn't work, then you may have a defective receiver.
