Fi BTL Randomly Quit! Please Help!

[brettwarner94]

I was wondering if somebody could help answer my question? Well I have two fi btls and one just randomly stopped working, so I took it out and rewired it and still nothing. It dosnt when move or make a sound? Whats going on? Could It be the motor? Or could I just buy a fi recone kit and fix it?

Did you check the coils with a DMM?

take a dmm and read coil's

 

[brettwarner94]

Yeah it still moves. But seriously seems dead whenever it is plugged up! Hold on while I do the ddm.

Okay well the ddm read good on the one bro but as for the second one, well it's way off. It should be reading about about 2 ohms but the one is closer to 4 ohms. So I believe it's the coils, but what do you think? Could it be the motor even with it reading close to 4 ohms?

Okay the one coil reads at 4.6ish and the other side/coil reads out at 6.7ish. What the?

Touch the 2 leads on the dmm together and whatever that number is you need to subtract from what each coil reads.
