Speed Passion Motor Problems

Hi,

Ive got a sp motor which will only work when you push it. i have changed the connection shields and changed the sensor wire. when it stops the motor wont run again unless you push it again.


Thanks

You can get the motor tester from Schumacher. Tom was testing a motor last night with one, simple but effective.

The motors probably a shorting out.

I had a SP motor that wouldn't move from a standstill, but if you gave it a nudge and didn't let it stop it would run fine.

Turned out to be 1 of the phases on the speedo (SP GT2.0 LPF) had gone down. It was replaced by Schumacher under warranty.

Needing a nudge is almost always the speedo. Have you tried another motor on it?

I had a SPEC Novak Speed Controller I intended to use for the wet car last year, I had the issues where the car would need a nudge to make it move..I thought this may have been the motor. As it wasn't a good quality brushless motor that was paired with it originally. Soldered a GM10.5 on and gave it a test run, accelerated fine...hit the brakes and the speedo went up in a huge puff of smoke, which in turn melted the top PCB to the lower one.
