Default HELP ESC SPEED PASSION GT2.0

Help ...
When connecting my esc GT2.0 Speed ​​Passion, just connecting the battery cables reversed.
After the speed it still worked for a few minutes, however the car did not move as before.
After that the speed stopped working.
I can not even resetting it.
The radio and receiver is working perfectly.
Does the esc went into some protection mode?
at the end of you need help.
thank you

Kenedi Quequi.

Did you have a capacitor bank connected?

You probobly damaged somthing inside the ESC that eventualy burnt up completely. Reversing power cables is almost always instant death to ESC's

You have the reverse polarity, and you still ran it for a few minutes? That ESC did way more then others can..........when most ppl reverse polarity, the ESC will instantly SMOKE then EXPLODE if you keep letting that happen.

You are lucky that ESC does not blow up in front of you.........

Just to double check......do you see any lights at the bottom of the ESC? Also, does the servo works with the radio when you turn on the ESC...?

Default HELP ESC SPEED PASSION

Hello everybody
I do not have capacitors installed

Yes smoke after leaving it still worked for a while

I was thinking of sending the esc to the Speed ​​Passion factory in China, it will be worth it?

Another option would be to purchase this esc.
