Are you saying it goes to wide open just slightly pressing it? Please describe.
And make sure your rear wheels are jacked up OFF THE GROUND. |

OK. Hook your DVM to the black and white wires coming from the pot (either way). Set your meter to 20K ohms. Meter should go from about zero to about 5000 ohms while slowly pressing pedal down.
Do this test and report back to us. |

And be sure to do the test on the wires with them disconnected from the controller. The readings will be of no value when plugged into the controller (and could damage your volt/ohm meter)
