Motors heating up..Plz ASAP
Hey Guyz

I used 2 window motors for the arm, However when i turn on the robot , it starts to heat up wheaher or not i run it or not. Can it be motor problem or is it PWMS what is making a difference. My Collegues say that it is connected directly to the Battery.This just happened 2 days before shipping.I have connected them to victors but it did not heat up before, Now it heats up like no tomm.

Can you plz TEll me what can possibly happen.
