    Motor running backwards

    So i resealed my MK Maxxum 24v 70 bow cable steer. Done it many times and no probs.

    This time it seems to be running backwards. How is this possible if I didnt touch the wiring or brushes?

    Can I just reverse the positive and neg? ty.

    That will definitely make it turn the other direction.

    You spun the magnets 180* from where they were. I did the same thing once.

    It really doesn't matter unless you are addicted to trolling in a forward direction.
