Well' I got confused in the commands. So I decided to use Usb2dynamixel and Dynamixel Wizard. I disable the Alarm LED and Alarm Shutdown to 0.
Then power off and On. Its on 0 now. Will it be there forever ? :?: I want to shutdown ovrload trigger permanently. :?
Now in the Roboplus manager; the temperature is 69 red mark. and the red led is ON forever. I think now the problem is temperature is over. How to turn off the temp trigger ? :roll:
I think overload problem is solved now the temperature problem is left with LED still ON. Any idea :idea:

After 1 year of struggle and lots of trials and different setups; I finally got success in Hacking Ax12+ Dynamixel. Yes; Its finally hacked :D :) :lol:
I have removed all the 4 tiny black gears and the tiny motor.
I have shutdown the overload trigger and Alarm LED from Dynamixel Wizard.
I have joined a 5amp 12volt Square shaped DC motor with metal gears. Which can give torque of 109Kgcm at 5amp.
I have attached a new motor driver board with ratings 5amp and 12 volts.

I got great help from article:- http://robosavvy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2673
Thanks to all 8)

you can reduce the head also by drilling two tiny holes on the backside motor.
you take part F3 AND DRILL THE MIDDLE HOLES THRU CASE OFF SERVO;
BOLT SIDES.the heat will stay hole day at 50.when servo is'n moving heat goes rapidly high,in 10 or 20 min you allreddy sit on yellow or red.
the temp trigger ,open manager llook for your servo and uncheck trigger there.
