How long does it take for the temp to drop?
Have you tried resetting the temp? Same as learn RC, but keep holding the button till it says release key to calibrate temp.
If not the probe could be faulty. It can just happen!

Have talk with a person that has had the same thing happen and he said it had to go in to Jetcat and it was the computer chip in the motor that had failed. Will get it off to California Monday..
Thanks for the replys on this problem things just fail from time to time.

Are you getting a good start up lighting sequence on your IO board? Try pushing the temp probe into housing a bit more (it is by the data cable plug on the turbine housing. Gently push it in a bit to make sure it has not come out some.
Good luck!
