Re: Jaguars...is this ok?

Mark,
Limiting speed in software or changing the gear ratios to something lower should help this problem. I believe this is an issue with the CIM motors running much higher than 40 amps so that when stall current is reached, it is for a much longer time interval than a transmission with a lower ratio.
