Traction Motor overheating

I recently installed a traction motor and in few months it's starting overheat (thermometer symbol lights up). I've replaced traction inverter, all the inverter cables, anybody have a clue as to what else could cause overheating? My
Boss said the differential could cause but I don't think so.
