I bet a diode in the redline box has failed and as a result your are receiving a voltage surge which is causing the capacitor to fail. Most likely a diode in the box from the wire that connects to the injectors/coils. These run at 50V not 12V like the remainder of the system.

Do I got a deal for you! Lol. Hope it gets worked out. Really takes the fun out of sledding when stuff doesn’t run as it should.

How did they come to that conclusion? I haven’t been on here in a long time and just saw this.

Voltage regulator is in the ecm. The 50V circuits are way too high causing my issues apparently. It is like throwing darts blindfolded, two capacitors and a stator later, ECM is next in line....after that if that doesn't work, a match is next
