Default Castle MMP troubles.

I'm having some esc issues now I get no lights and no sounds only a running fan. Ive got power going through the esc I assume since the steering servo works, waiting to hear back from castle if they have any ideas. Not sure what could have happened after my run last night I plugged in a other battery and it was working but seemed sluggish, I was just assuming it was from a battery already at lvc so I plugged it in for a storage charge. It was 100% dry out not a drop of water to be seen anywhere. Any thoughts?

Did you confirm the position of your throttle trim on your controller? Double check all the wires between the motor and esc and make sure the connections are good and wires arent loose on the motor or on the esc board. Confirm that the programming on your esc didn't somehow get changed(stranger things have happened). Otherwise it sounds like your esc may be on its last leg.

The esc doesn't even turn on, no lights no chimes. All I get is a cooling fan and servo power. Castle said try disconnecting from the rx and trying it but it does the same so they're just going to warranty I guess.
