Two Issues:

My E12 was getting stuck in reverse and the machine needed to be shutoff to correct the problem. This happened twice then arcing/sparkingsounds came from the electronics under the steering wheel and now themachine has no forward or reverse. Any thoughts on what to troubleshotfirst? I have an E12M I could swap parts off.

My B145 seems under powered and the traction motor heats up and shutsoff after about 15 minutes of use. The brakes not stuck on and it hasfresh gear oil. Do I need a new motor?


Thanks for any insights,

Patrick McCabe
