Reversing contactor install txt

Mglass · 03-28-2020, 02:18 PM

I just received my reversing contactor from Scotty and doing the install now. Everything is going as it should so far up until now. everything is hooked up and I have the cart going in forward but not reverse. When in reverse, the contactor engages, and the main solenoid engages but no movement. If i push the pedal harder I can hear the motor making a slight noise as if its not happy but no movement. I have not hooked up the orange wire for half speed reverse. Currently using 8 6v batteries and an altrax sr48500 with a 200 amp solenoid and 2 ga wires. What did I miss? or did I hook something up backwards?

Post a pic of the cables on the SW202 with some sort of indication showing where each cable goes.

I just went to take the photo and while chasing the wires to label them correctly I found that the main reverse wires were reversed. Got them in the right place and now it runs amazing!!! Thank you again sir. You obviously know how to ask the right questions.
