Had I run the car much more this bare positive wire would have shorted out on the PCB. If the positive wire on that fan shorts out I'm sure it will take other stuff out. This whole problem MIGHT be as simple as poor wire routing & nothing more.

That is a good point. could be that towers first batch has better fan wire routing. I think it is definitely worth a look.

I just read the letter that came with my repaired esc. I had read it before but I didn't pay it much attention as I didn't think I would have any problems after having it repaired. It says to call them straight away if I have any problems. Opps. I sent mine back, it's too difficult to call them especially when I'm sick.
