This is what my switches look like. Switch one has one wire connected to both center terminals going up, one wire connected to both left terminals going down and one wire connected to both right terminals also going down.
Switch two has a positive wire from the battery connected to the left center terminal and a negative wire from the battery connected to the right center terminal. Switch two also has a positive receiver wire connected to the left side of the left terminal and a negative reciever wire connected to the right side of the left terminal. Here's a revised picture:
There is a bigger version of switch two on the right side.
Originally, I just connected the positive fan wire to the positive battery lead of the ESC. Then I put the negative fan wire to the yellow bridge wire. But then the fan would run when I had one battery plugged in. I was just too lazy to simply unplug the batteries.
If I make it out of this alive, I'm simply going to run the system without a fan and just change my gearing if it runs too hot. I'm trying really hard to get my parent(s) to help me E-Mail Mike. I'm also going to see if Tower will give me a couple of months extra on the warrenty of my steering servo, as I have spent around $1220:dft002::eek::confused: on them alone:013:.
I still can't get anything to work. I stuck an old motor and esc in my Rustler and took it for a quick spin, just to take my mind off things. I really don't like the look in my parents' face when I told them how much this costs:013:. If I can't get the ESC fixed for really cheap, like less than $50, then
I might have to give up brushless:012:.
I WON'T LET THE BRUSHED PEOPLE TAKE ME ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:035:
