Default Re: Melex 252 Wiring Conern

Thanks Rusty. Ok, I verified that the pedal is not sticking(it has good movement so it's not engaged when I move to forward or reverse position.

Using the wiring diagram provided by Vintage web site, I verified that the primarly wiring is correct(I say primary because their diagrams do not go into detail on how the switches or solenoid should be wired). The only concern I might have is the wiring diagram did not specifically say it was for a 252 with serial#171482, but it sure looks like it's the one to use.

I assume the micro switch for the Accelerator should be wired in the normally closed positon(this is how it's wired currently). What was interesting was I dis-connected on side of that micro switch and it continued to run as if it were wired??? I ohmed out the switch and it was reading as expected.

I assume the solenoid is working correctly because the motor is getting power??


I'm missing something here, just not sure what it is.
