HOT resistor on solenoid. Help!
1994 Club Car - full solid state conversion.
FSIP 700a controller. Just got everything hooked up for the first time and caught the distinct smell of something hot. Quickly removed the 36v+ lead and started to investigate. After feeling around, I noticed that the resistor that goes across the two big lugs on the new solenoid is awfully hot. Any ideas what would cause this? |

Re: HOT resistor on solenoid. Help!
Update - I'm done working on it for the day but just had an idea. This cart has a 36-12v converter, and I realized in my haste that I had the 36v+ lead hooked up to b+ on the controller which doesn't get power until the solenoid pulls in. Possible/probable that this converter was trying to pull juice through - and heating up the resistor since the contractor was not 'pulled in'. ?
