The type of issue I had with my motor because of a bad crimp was not a cold connecting just a bad crimp job....My motor would only fail every once in a great while until the wire was burned enough to short out completely...When they crimp them at the factory all the do is put a cap on end of wires and crimp...The wires are not twisted together or solder at time of crimp...wires that carry current and crimped in this fashion can build up carbon particles between wires...when enough particles build up you have a short that then blows particles off of wire and connection is good until enough of the wires are burned. A bad crimp job will build up heat at connection...If you have a voltage issue you would have a consent issue not an intermitted issue...I don't know if this is you issue, but it does fit the pattern....as you said it only occurs every 20-30 spindle start-up....if you had low voltage it would be every start-up
