Blown MFC? Another head scratcher

[heavy_duty]

Hello,
I experienced this before myself and I was stumped.After searching around and coming up empty. I called Tamiya and spoke with customer service. They told me to return the unit and they warranted it. They sent me a replacement unit. I didn't tell them how long I had the unit or anything. They had heard of this problem before. Good luck. Keep us posted.

Thanks Ed, so I take it the MFC is no good? Did they give you and reasons as to why this happened? I'd like to know if it's just a defect or if I did something to cause it. I had a pretty good load on it, almost 50 lbs before it happened

Is it an issue w the coupler switch? Have you tried it with the coupler switch engaged? In all of my rigs, I have the coupler switch elimated and the circuit wired together so the MFU thinks it's always hooked up.

Hmmm I can certainly check it out. I can't see why it would be that, but hey you never know. If it is that you will be my best friend

Any update?
