Re: Jaguar "Whiplash"
Zme,
Not sure what you are asking. The gate driver failures in early production models did not show a fault indicator. They would either not drive in one direction or not drive at all. If the power supply was not affected by the failure, (some were) then the internals thought everything was fine. When Jags were first introduced, CAN was not allowed. So there was no way to get any info back from the device.

Scott,
Does the v92 firmware change the delay time for an overcurrent fault? That would be a handy change. Show the LED fault but let the Jag go back to output enable.
