If its a Canadian MK3 , it should have a 12v vibrator power supply running the receiver . Sounds like you don't have the original power supply with it . The British version mk3 has two seperate genemotors - one for tx and one for rx

They did this in order to lower the current drain , eg, as with the mk2 , which had one large genemotor drawing over 10 amps all of the time.
