Alltrax install complete
First a shout out to David Hicks at Revolutiongolfcars for shipping the controller within 1 hour of purchase. The installation was somewhat difficult considering my lack of electrical, technical and/or mechanical background but I persevered and I’m basically finished except for connecting the large pin connector and hooking back up all the batteries. If I could just get a once over to see if I missed anything or don’t have the F1 and F2 correct. The regen diode was included in the shipment and installed. I have a stock solenoid, so I didn’t install the coil diode.
Motor A1 (green) to controller B+ Motor F1 (orange) to J7 Motor F2 (blue) to J8 Motor A2 (white) to J9 Thanks in advance and I would have never gotten this far if it wasn’t for the knowledge, advice and guidance that has already been provided by the many great people on this site. |

Re: Alltrax install complete
That looks real clean!
Can't comment on the connections, I haven't upgraded yet. |

Re: Alltrax install complete
Finally got the nerve to complete the entire install process and see if I miraculously installed the controller correctly. I secured the two batteries I removed and connected the large pin connector. I then installed the fuse on the positive battery wire and then connected to the terminal. I connected the negative wire to the terminal and saw a very, very small spark, which I think is somewhat normal. I inserted the key, turned to on and NOTHING. However, the lights and blinkers worked. I proceeded to unhook the negative wire and was about to check all wire connections until I realized I forgot to switch from tow to run. I then put the negative wire on the terminal again and I saw another spark that was small but definitely larger than the first. I'm now even more nervous of switching from tow to run.

Re: Alltrax install complete
Everything appears to be connected correctly in your drawing. The spark you're seeing may be related to a voltage reducer that's installed on your cart for your headlights or other 12 volt accesories. In which case, this would be normal.

Re: Alltrax install complete
IT RUNS! Thank you David for a fast shipment, great product and perfectly programmed unit. Speed increased from 19 to 24 mph on flat pavement. UNREAL. I only went around my block because I still want to tweak my front alignment but I couldn't be more thrilled. I'll post more results later today but on first impression, the initial pickup was a little better, and the regenerative breaking was significantly more present. With the stock controller, regen only kicked in when going down a hill and only after I slowed to about 7-10 mph. Now it kicks in as soon as I take my foot off the pedal and almost brings me to a complete stop within a short distance. I definitely didn't like the regen before as it felt somewhat unpredictable and I'll have to see if I like the fact that I won't be able to coast. Maybe that is adjustable with the Alltrax.
