Here's an LDU inverter stand I made: https://www.westside-ev.com/s/LDU-Inverter-Stand.stl

Just connect two of them to one of the three metal phase support structures and lay the inverter on its side. Way more stable than vertical.

got a picture of how it works?

I actually sell these (not trying to advertise. Just explaining why I don't release the files). I have some other misc tools that are simple and I share. I'll post them.

Thanks. Found it.

Not sure if this is the correct forum but I don't see a dedicated forum for support.

How do we post pictures? Do they have to be posted somewhere else and linked? Can we upload pictures here?

I own a shop and we rebuild 2012-2020 large drive units.

We replace bearings, do coolant deletes and replace seals.

I am looking for a complete test procedure for inverters or any ideas on how to test them and possibly repair.

Tests that I currently do: (feel free to correct my readings if you ...
