wiring new controller and solenoid???
I have an AXE 500 amp controller and was wondering if you professionals out there just cut the factory wire harness off (red orange black and white wires)and put some connectors on them to connect to the controller or is there a plug i forgot to buy?
Also have a new MZJ -400 Solenoid that looks completely diff that the factory. how do i know what side the 2 small red wires off the factory wireharness connect to and im sure its the opposite side for the small black wire off the wire harness and small black wire off b-. Also what side of the solenoid does the 2 gauge cable from B+ off the controller connect to and the 2 gauge cable from the battery connects to the other side im guessing. The controller only mounted to the factory plate with the two screws in the middle of the mounting plate. Will this suffice? Any help is appreciated |

What year cart?, and drive system?
to two small wires on the solenoid does not matter which side you put them on, just make sure the ban on the diode is on the POS + side |

I cut mine off and added 4 spade connectors. No problems. Quote:
Soleoids are not polarity sensitive, just keep the wires, diode, and resistor in the same orientation as they were before. Quote:

Re: wiring new controller and solenoid???
Im pretty sure my cart is a 2007.
Of course the cover doesnt fit over the new controller. Should i make a cover for it or is it good just mounted to the factory plate |

No need for a cover over the controller. The Alltrax controllers are water proof.

Re: wiring new controller and solenoid???
Alltrax doesn't say their control is waterproof. Potted in resin and water resistant, yes. Also the Alltrax needs more air to dissipate the addition heat it will generate passing more amperage to the system. Toss the old cover out!
