[electricboats] Sevcon gen 4 overload?

Recently I had a fail with my electric motor installation on my yacht which I couldn't immediately diagnose. Subsequently I had a diver cleaning the anti-foul and he found masses of fishing line wrapped around the propellor. It was apparently quite tight and while he managed to remove 90% of it and got the propellor to rotate, I still can't get the controller to respond. I have looked at the fault finding led on the controller casing and when the key is turned on I am getting multiple flashes far in excess of anything in the manual and then fades out. Given that I seem to have full charge, fuses intact and nothing appears during visual inspection I am at a bit of a loss on how to proceed. I am tipping that it must have got overloaded with fishing line jamb and that some sort of overload has been tripped...
 
Any have any thoughts?
