Re: A real puzzle - Electromechanical fault

4 wheel, long wheelbase, not enough gear reduction, and it doesn't move, but draws a lot of current....that sounds about right. You have a mecanum drivetrain, but no mecanum wheels. You probably should not expect it to be able to turn, sorry.

As for why it doesn't work when you put it back, I don't know.
