Yes I'm still on the FOC firmware, and yes the ligjt bulbs are in parallel with the motor. Ibhave them connected to monitor output PWM.

Re: EV Conversion using prius gen 2 inverter/transaxle
OK. So I swapped pin 3 and 6 and happened to might have happened to get it right for the pedal. I disconnected my resolver because I think that's where the problem is but I'll get to that shorty. I had my inverter in Runmode and the Delta connected light bulbs lit up. When I pressed the pedal, they ...

Re: EV Conversion using prius gen 2 inverter/transaxle
I pressed my pedal and Potnom remained 0% all the time. What changed was the values on pot1 and pot2 the valus kept increasing until they reached 4095 when fully pressed. I could only see the changes of this values by refreshing everything I press harder and harder.

Re: EV Conversion using prius gen 2 inverter/transaxle
My encmode was set to resolver but I didn't have my resolver connected to anything yet. So I set encmode 0 in custom command but the motor still won't spin.
My research answers also suggested set focctrl to 0 under custom commands,I did and the results were "unknown parameter focctrl"

I removed the light bulb and tested, the transaxle didn't rotate. All I noticed was the output shaft rotating back and forth on the same position as seen on the previous video. The shaft was a bit more aggressive as i increased ampnom, it seemed to be receiving enough power to rotate, but couldn't ...

Re: EV Conversion using prius gen 2 inverter/transaxle
At some point of this troubleshooting, they told me to disconnect all the light bulbs and Resistors in series connection. And ever since I didn't connect them back on.
Should I reconnect the 55w light bulb on the HV positive?
