Abstract
A method of manufacturing a brushless electric motor including providing a stator that includes a core defining a plurality of stator teeth, positioning a rotor within the stator, coupling a stator end cap to an end of the core, winding a plurality of coils on the plurality of stator teeth, and overmolding a plurality of coil contact plates within the stator end cap. The coil contact plates short-circuit diagonally opposite coils on the stator.
