Hello! after having a board and some pieces of an eboard for some time laying around I’ve finally decided to go through and order the parts to finish it off, just the mounts and pulleys etc. This is the current electronics:
Battery: https://a.co/d/9EgK7Qm
Motor: Amazon.com
VESC: https://a.co/d/4j1ceDA (Not quite sure if this the exact same one, I recall mine being much older, sorry I got these parts years ago)
The other day I finally got everything working, the remote (basic 2.4Ghz remote) worked, the motor would spin up, everything worked well, today, I finally got my mount for the trucks, and decided to do the FOC setup on the VESC Tool, which ended up bricking the motor or VESC, and now the motor doesnt move. Thinking back I shouldnt have messed with it when it was already working fine but I read something that said you should setup the FOC and so I tried.
I tried unplugging all the motor (bullet) connections and replugging them in, tried reseting VESC and re doing FOC with different parameters, nothing seems to be working. It does run throught the FOC and says that It was successful but the motor doesnt spin at all throughout the test.
I’m a little lost as it was just working pretty much 8 hours ago, so I really dont know what could have happened to it.
Any help is appreciated.

The motor spins freely perfectly fine. If it is a issue with the bullet connectors then im not too sure what I can do as I dont have acsess to soldering equipment currently, and wont for some time, would be open to suggestions (crimping maybe but I feel thats a very one way street.)
I’m a little lost as it was just working pretty much 16 hours ago, so I really dont know what could have happened to it.
Below is FOC setup results. I feel like the motor current seems very low, but could be wrong, and it does say sensorless when it has a hall sensor, so is it potentially a hall sensor defect? I tried running it in sensorless, which is suppossed to still work.(?) Just trying to brainsorm
Any help is appreciated.
