Unhappy

Hi I have a strange problem with the RS and sensorless motors.
Using Vegas 208, running a sensorless tekin redline I have zero brakes and I mean zero
I have done all the usual, reset speedo, checked end points etc, all with no luck.

In a final desperate attempt I thought it could be something to do with the totaly sensorless running, so I plugged in a sensored motor into the sensor slot, with the sensorless motor still wired into the car, turned on the rs, waited for the confirmation beep and unplugged the sensor harness. I have not reved the car, which has the sensorless motor in, or moved the rotor in the sensored motor before unplugging the sensor cable.
Now the car has loads of brakes

Turn off the rs and on again, no brakes, tried the above again, brakes work

Is this a 208 issue? Does the rs need to see a sensor for the brakes to work sensorless after?

I tried these with the sensored motor in and the same thing happens. If I turn on the rs with the sensor cable unplugged I have no brakes

Can someone else running 208 with a couple of minutes to spare just unplug their sensor cable, turn the rs on and see if the brakes work?

Thanks Sam
