Interesting Jaguar Death

Today, whilst doing drive train testing I noticed one wheel was not spinning. Went and checked the jaguars and found the jag controlling that wheel to be off. No light, no smoke. Upon closer examination, the jaguar was emitting a distinct "tick", and each "tick", the fan would twitch. The jag "ticked" about once per second. I also noticed that the positive motor terminal had melted the plastic surrounding it. The robot was only under a moderate load.

Language: Java
Controller: Black Jaguar (PWM) 2012 KOP model.
DriveTrain: Direct Drive

Any Ideas?
