I have to mention that i rewired everything (both mine and my buddy's) to 14 awg cable and soldered motor directly to the speedo, so we don't have those awefull bullets. Could this decrease in resistance cause overcurrent issues?
I think there might be a resetable fuse in the speedo that braks the circuit when power exeeds a limit of Amperes. So i got 2 options. Either reinstall the bullets or deans or som sort of connector to increase resistance. Or try to find the fuse in the speedo board and bypass it...
After all if it doesn't work with lipos i am gonna ditch it and buy something aftermarket.
I really doubt that you are dealing with an overcurrent issue like you think.
How is your soldering skills?
If you have a cold solder joint someplace in there that could be the cause
of all your ailments.
Did you do the same modifications to your Buds car too?
Any other modifications that your not telling us about, like upping the gearing
maybe???
