This problem is more than likely due to your motor. I bet if you unplug your motor from the system (just unhook both the + and - from it, that the frame leak goes away. I have a Warp9 motor and it does this. It seems to be due to the brushes for some reason. Some people say it is due to brush dust, but I see the issue even after cleaning it out with air. I don't know about your fuse blowing. It sounds like something is setup wrong. Or it is the wrong fuse. What kind is it? corbin _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
