Partial Jag failure?
At the regional this weekend, I have a tan Jag that, after two days of use (and several over-current faults) refuses to output power anymore.
When I noticed this, I tested this with BDC-COMM, in voltage mode. Not only did it not move the motor, but its output voltage remained 0. The heartbeat was enabled. (Even when it's not, however, I should get a short pulse for 0.1 seconds)
The Jaguar said it was at 35 degrees Celsius.

I plan to check this again to make sure it wasn't some temporary thing, (and that I didn't make silly mistakes in testing). However, I'm curios if anyone else has experienced this.
