Let the motor cool all the way down.

Check if all the wires are connected properly with good contact.

Make sure all the CVDs and gears can rotate smoothly, nothing trapping. Try taking the motor out and running it just holding it, that will tell you if it is a chassis problem or motor/ESC.

the motor is stone cold in front of me now out of truck and still nothing shaft moves freely by hand

update: when i do the program the pinion does jumo slightly when it beeps

What controller/motor is it? can you get through the programming steps all the way?

[Monkey]

its the 9L motor and the 9920 controller and i can get all through the programing

have you tried checking the normal and reverse switch on ur radio.?.. the normal and reverse for the throttle. i don't know if this would make any difference...

it's pretty hard to fry a motor isn't it?..

I ran 120K on my cheappy himax 380 size motor. and it moved it better than my buddies HV maxx.. :)

Try the switch... mayble it'll help,

How many cells? Are you using the controllers BEC? A receiver pack? UBEC?
Did it suddenly stop working, or did it work fine the last time you used it, but wouldn't work the next time you wanted to use it?

The motor is probably good, since it beeps. The reason why the motor's pinion jumps when you hear a beep is because the controller sends a pulse to the motor that causes the beeping noise.

im using 14cells a seperate reciver pack and it suddenly stopped i left it 5min and it started again for a min or so and stopped again and i havent got it to work since

If you smell the controller, does it smell strange?

[RC-Monster Mike]

Do you have another motor to try? In another thread, you said the motor was scorching hot. It is possible that it got so hot that it demagnatized itself(I did this with a 10L once). The motor wouldn't move the truck at all. I didn't try to program it after it happened, though.
Also, check to make sure the programming jumper hasn't come loose. This would cause it to not work(would try to program instead of trying to run). Do you get any beeps when you try to run it? Is the reciever lead from the controller plugged into the receiver in the proper orientation(sounds simple, but I have plugged it in backwards myself)?
