i got the picture of my vesc

25

At a glance everything looks okay. What firmware are you running?

26

how do I find it

27

Firmware tab, then click read firmware

28

Also when you plug the VESC in, are you clicking the Read Current Settings button in the bottom left?

29

2.18 is the firmware

30

hello are you there

31

Yeah, do you read the settings when you plug in the VESC?

32

yeah but it look the same

33

Everything is blank (or zeros)?

34

that’s how it was when I first look at it

35

You have mentioned earlier that you got a DRV error:[quote=“Bryantmorris101101, post:12, topic:9484, full:true”] Fault : FAULT_CODE_DRV8302 Current : 0.2 Current filtered : 0.5 Voltage : 33.07 Duty : 0.00 RPM : 0.2 Tacho : 84 Cycles running : 0 TIM duty : 8 TIM val samp : 1050 TIM current samp : 3150 TIM top : 4200 Comm step : 5 Temperature : 32.39 [/quote]

So you will need to replace the DRV8302 chip (It is written on the big chip)! You can replace it yourself, ask a local electrician or maybe someone from this forum can do this.

36

Is that the only way

37

I think so but i am not that experienced with vesc faults… It is time for the god of vesc to chime in here and give a final word, @chaka :smiley:

38

It needs to be revived with a fresh DRV chip but we do not know why it died so it will likely blow another chip unless you fix the cause of the error.
