We managed to damage all 6 CIMs in our drivetrain at Waterloo last year. We were having issues with popping breakers, inconsistent performance and the CIMs getting very hot very quickly. When we removed each CIM from the gearbox we found their no load current was 7-10 amps versus 2-3 amps a stock CIM would have. Replacing all our CIMs fixed our issues.
