Possible Causes

1Insufficient braking resistor

HIGH likelihood

Validate this cause with diagnostic values and wiring/mechanical inspection before replacing parts.

2Aggressive deceleration ramps

MEDIUM likelihood

Validate this cause with diagnostic values and wiring/mechanical inspection before replacing parts.

Step-by-Step Solution

1

Action 1

Check braking resistor sizing

Details

  • Record measured values before and after this action
2

Action 2

Increase deceleration time
