Did you check your solder joints with an ohmmeter to make sure they were solid? You do also realize that by not having the tops of the FETs in contact with the aluminium heatsink, that you are reducing the power-handling capacity of the chips, right? Speaking of that heatsink, make sure the pins on the FETs are not touching it where they come through, unless of course, you took it out completely. Also make sure the board is not being pushed up against the driveshaft, shorting it out.

I just did my first 2x3 stack this weekend, but it wasn't on an Xmod, and I was using IRF7389s. It works flawlessly, however it did take me two attempts to get it right. Word of advice, pay attention when you are stacking, I got distracted and put a FET in the stack backwards. Luckily I noticed the batteries getting warm right away, took them right back out, and fixed the problem. Even though I never saw or smelled smoke, I assumed that all the FETs in the stack were shot, so I didn't reinstall them, I made a new stack.

Heatsink pictures!

Does anyone have any pictures of the MosFets heat sink or pictures of the bottom of the car that have the heatsink showing!
I am ready to do the mods to my cars and just want to see what they look like!
