Re: power from a curtis control box
Hello John, your technical knowledge is appreciated. Refering to your 123 senario, I would have to say#1 since #2 was the original choice that was replaced and #3 replaced due to being a mechanical wear and tear product. we can never be complacent about new and rebuilt without testing, a lesson learned before. looking at the J1 connector pins, I get the feeling 1 thru 5 has to be activated before 6thru 10. If that be the case, then the current to the foward and reverse switch circuit might be the missing link. I dont think I remember current at J1#1 pin or#2 reverse and #3 foward. Pins 4 & 5 are live because they come directly from the battery sources. six thru ten are dead. Another issue that seems strange to me is micro pedal switch. measuring the voltage on both sides of the switch opened or closed results in 36 volts. maybe thats normal for the application but seems wrong to me.
