i was driving fast brakes locked and stopped the batterys unplugged so i plug them back in and poof! smoke pours from the case. berne at cc said to send it directly to the engineers. so i hope its a fluke!
If you were in full brake when the battery connector came unplugged, then it probably blew some FET's when that happened. Then you plug it back in and poof here comes the smoke. The voltage generated by braking has to go somewhere, without a battery to dump it into then the controller takes the brunt of it. Battery coming unplugged on a heavy vehicle during a full brake is usually bad.
