Re: Banebots RS-775 Case Short

I just got off the phone with BaneBots.

They believe the problem is caused by a small amount of debris in the motor possibly introduced during manufacturing.

They have had success with several motors in house when they apply 12V between the motor lead and the case. This zaps the debris and you should be good to go. You might have try this with both leads depending on where the debris is.

I will try this on our 2 shorted motors tonight and post our results.
