SPIN/STALL DETECTOR FOR AN ELECTRICALLY PROPELLED TRACTION VEHICLE ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE For a traction vehicle having two wheels driven by separate electric motors, a spin/stall condition is indicated if one of the wheels is rotating faster than a predetermined reference speed while the other wheel is not rotating, and a total stall condition is indicated if neither wheel is rotating and the magnitude of motor current exceeds a predetermined high level. Correction of any spin/stall condition is attempted by temporarily connecting a power resistor across the motor driving the spinning wheel, whereupon current (and hence torque) in the motor driving the stalled wheel will increase. Once a total stall is indicated, it is allowed to continue for a maximum period of time that varies inversely with the motor current magnitude, and if such condition is not earlier corrected motor damage is avoided by deenergizing both motors on the expiration of this period.
