Conversion Kit failed
I have a 2000 DS 48 Vol series With a 700 amp non programmable controller, 4 ga wires and a MCOR 4.
I wanted to upgrade to a 500 amp Alltrax, HD F/R, And 2 ga wires and a 400 amp solenoid. So I ordered and installed per instructions. Everything went find until I turn key on and hit the go pedal. A LOUD pop and blew the diode on solenoid. When and bought a new one and replaced it. Key on, hit go pedal and blew it also. At a lose now. What to do now? |

Re: Conversion Kit failed
When you replaced diode what size did you get? I know when I converted mine scotty gave me two 1 for 36v and one for 48v for when I went to 48v.

Re: Conversion Kit failed
Yes but you run the risk of frying some components

Re: Conversion Kit failed
You had both diodes in backwards. That is the only way you would fail it that way.

Re: Conversion Kit failed
I'd verify that small red wire next. The other end should be on controller #1. Take off both ends and ring out with the meter.
