nosram matrix evo error code!

[craigosh]

Had an issue today with my nosram matrix evo and lipo. Basically the power cuts out after a split second and the blue and yellow led say on. Anyone any idea what this means.

I've tracked the problem down to the lipo pack mind as it ran fine with a nimh, but i'm just curious as to what it the error code means.

cheers

locked rotor or check there no direct short between phases ie solder run down it also it wouldnt hurt to clean sensor cable with some motor spray

Double check you have the speedo on LiPo mode. It's the first setting during set-up. I think it should be on '1', but check your instructions.

Bad luck Craig!

If the Nosram is like the LRP Sphere, then it should auto-sense the battery type.

I know my LRP Sphere does this.

Hope you get it sorted.

Both the LRP and NOSRAM will auto sense the battery type, but it can be turned off. So it's always best to check.

Tried it with and without the lipo mode set and it does it on both so its somthing odd with the pack.
Have to call trakpower tomoz..

So does noone know what the the codes mean? or is it like burt said, an indication of locked rotor?


cheers

Just gone over the sheet and the supplement that comes with the Matrix Evo and there is no mention of possible causes of blue/yellow leds showing. Sorry dude, may be best to contact Nosaram in the morning.

Lol not that bothered now....
Just wanted to know what it refered to, like to know what these things mean so I'm not scratchin my head (or arse) trying to diagnose future problems and why lights are on that shouldnt be on.!!
Was hopin doughty might chip in an answer being all LRP pro and all...

My LRP Sphere TC spec did this. If i pushed the car, it would free up again for a few moments and then fail. I tried it with several motors and it still did it. I had to send it to Horizon and it was replaced down to a fault

Hope this helps
