Jaguar Meltdown

Our team (1606) had an interesting night tuesday when one of our jaguars released a plume of smoke while driving, all wiring was correct and the replacement jaguar is doing fine so we hope its just one that was faulty. upon further inspection after taking it apart it appears one of the power transistors had completly melted and began melting a second one and there were burn marks in the casing. has anyone else had this problem? pictures to follow...
