wheels rotate opposite!!!
 
Hi all,

Please don't laugh:) in the final stages of
my rs10 mods the major being a 540 conversion, upon trying the motors the front wheels are rotating backwards. How can this be when the diffs are fixed and only install one way I am puzzled what have I done!!
The Paul.

Try swapping the motor leads on the opposing motor.

Yep, that's a cable mismatch.

I had the same problem. Switch the + and - on the motor that is spinning the wrong direction. Problem solved.

Thx for the fast response guys yes thats solved the issue, cant thank you enough. once i've completed all the mods prob next week, i will be posting a full report with pics on the forum, The 540 swap was a little challenging at times but managed to do it without any kits ( none in the UK). I'm expecting a big improvement over the stock setup.
