Exchange magnets

[Citroen]

Just a quick question what would happen if u only had 2 magnets facing the correct way and 1 was the wrong way round?

Just curious

That's almost as bad as when an particle and an anti-particle meet in the Large Hadron Collider. There's some level of annihilation.

You forgot to add this: to your post.

The work is done!
The magnets that I bought are smaller than de original. I didn't need redrill the holes. I putted two magnets per hole.
First I attached the magnets with eletrical tape to test. Worked well. So I glued the magnets with epoxy adhesive applied on both sides.
I took care to put all the magnet sets in the same polarity as the originals.

All right Ricardo! Well done!! Did you have to replace all the magnets?

General question for the experts: Won't magnets exposed to high heat from powder coating, become demagnetised? And if all three no longer functioned as magnets, would the PM even power up?

The old magnets weren't completely demagnetised. In this case you can check the right polarisation before replace.
Yes, I replaced all.
