I assume you're referring to a CIM?

If you are running to a victor it will not work...but if you are running straight to a battery it will run in reverse

If you switch the wires that run from motor to victor it will work fine. If you switch the wires that run from the breaks to the victor it will not work. The motor itself does not care which direction power is fed to it but the victor does.

As a note you should be able to fix the problem just as easily in code as you can in hardware and then you won't have to mismatch the motor wires.
