How do I test to see if PDS chip is working correctly?

wish2fish · 01-08-2008, 10:53 AM

I have the red chip installed which is supposed to be the speed chip. I can only get 12mph gps. I'm assuming the chip is not working properly. I see in the manual it is supposed to beep differently depending on which chip.

How do I test to see if speed chip is being recognized?

thanks

I did the same thing.

Turn the run tow switch to "tow."

Turn back to "run."

Enjoy the speed!

The controller needs to reset in order to see the chip.

I'm not sure that it matters....

Worse comes to worse I suppose you can turn the switch to tow and disconnect the positive of the battery.

Plug it all back in.

When you take your fool off the gas you'll notice the complete lack of braking effect and noticably higher top speeds.

Anytime you work on a PDS cart you need to turn the Run/ Tow switch to off.These controllers are very senstive to spikes.
If the speed chip is connected correctly it shouldn't have any regan effect when you take your foot off the gas. It should coast and when you are on flat ground riding at full speed it shouldn't cut in and out like the All Terrain chip does.
