The SPM line of controllers are the newest generation of golf cart speed controls from Alltrax. They are constructed appear to be constructed in a similar manner to the AXE controls but, may be a little more open with the addition of a cooling fan. The electronics are still potted in resin, meaning they are encapsulated and protected from dirt and moisture, same as the AXE. No golf cart controller is waterproof. The SPM does have reverse polarity protection. This could save your controller in the event of a motor failure or other catastrophic short.

It is typically better to start a new thread than resurrect an old one since the same set of symptoms have different meanings in different carts and may have different solutions.

You can power up an AXE controller and program it out of the cart (See attached), but that is all that is practical for the average cart owner.

To bench test a controller, you'll need an appropriate power supply and test load, or in other words, you need the equivalent of a cart on the test bench.

You didn't describe the cart the AXE is in, and the are put in a lot of different carts, and there are two variants or input connectors on AXE controllers, but in most carts the voltage that tells the AXE to power up, passes through three or four sets of switch contacts in series, so it is easy to troubleshoot.
