I've been running a qs205 with my sabvoton 72080 flawlessly for quite some time. One day the halls failed on me in a heavy rain situation...and I was already on my spare set. Finally got around to replacing the halls but now I have a new problem. Now my motor gets very hot under any heavy riding, even with regular riding it eventually gets hot. Before I would be able to run my controller full power all day and it get pretty warm at best. Now it gets hot to the point my sabvoton will cut off because of over current protection. Never changed any settings at all. everytime i check the motor when it does this it's very very hot to the touch. It even gets hot under normal riding conditions, and I'm definitely noticing heavier current draw when going slow speeds. I did not change the order of the halls as a sabvoton is very picky and will only work one way anyway. The motor does not feel any different performance wise, it pulls with the same exact torque it did before, except now it just gets hot very fast. Not making any weird noises or anything either like something's holding it back from spinning... any ideas??
