I believe the FETs opened, but I'll have to verify and get back on that.
Were the cases damaged? i.e. blown off or burned. Simple electrical failure of some of the FETs without case damage, may indicate a static problem. Were the same FETs involved in all cases with the same motor? That might be an indication of a bad brush assy. or a bad drive part in one direction.
