Not wanting to hijack the thread - but don't sensors seem ridiculously expensive compared to the overall price of a motor!
I have a brand new Speed Passion 7.5T which I stupidly connected the ABC wires up incorrectly and smoked. It just runs really slow now and then starts smoking again - well, it did last time I checked. Took it apart and there are no signs of shorting or burning on the sensor and no melted windings as far as I can see.
Now people tell me the first thing to try is a new sensor but inc. p&P that's going to cost me £30, and it still might not work....
When you can get a brand new motor for £50 (or s/h runner for £30) it just doesn't seem worth the risk. Anyone know where to get cheap sensors from to bring my paperweight back to life?
