| Smokin 45t Tekin HD
Hi I got a tekin 45t hd motor and it smokes whenever i try to use it. I opend it up and it really looks quite ok. Im not an expert on motors but to mee it seems fine. But cant figure out why it makes smoke. It have been doing so ever since i got it, and it really looks almost new I got it used from a guy with a truck who said it was only 3 months old, and not much used. It started to smoke with the previous owner so I got it free with the truck. but since lt looks im good condition and its a rebuildable motor I was wandering if its any hope for it? does anyone have a idea what might cause the smoke? I have opend and inspected it, and brushes and coam looks ok, with little use. I have rinced it with eletrical cleaner while running on 3v (no smoke on low voltage) and lubricated it. But as soon as i put on a 2s lipo it starts to smoke when running. Im lost at the moment. |

There must be an electrical short somewhere in one of the armature coils. Test the resistance of all three coils and see if one of them has a significantly different resistance.

Did you test the motor like I suggested?
