I have a DC-DC Converter that is rated for an input of 9 to 36 V and an output of 12 V, 6 A.

When under no load, the DC-DC Converter outputs 12 V as expected. When under a load of one motors (0.037 A for some reason) the voltage drops to 8.4 V.

I have connected the +Vout to +Sense and -Vout to -Sense. I am also sure that my input (14 V, 10 Fully Charged NiMH Eneloop batteries in series) can supply the needed current.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Edit: As suggested in the comments, I connected the output to a 100-ohm resistor. When I did, the voltage did not drop.

The circuit is pretty straight forward, but here is an image of it.
