Re: KoP TB Mini- Transmission Seizing

I've had a problem where a student put a spacer that was supposed to be behind the CIM pinion gear and put it on top under the retention ring. That caused the gearbox to seize almost immediately.

Like others have said, get your assembly manual out for the gearbox and check EVERYTHING. It's likely been assembled wrong.
