What type batteries do you have in it?

And yes, 20 mph in stock trim would require SP-4

How about going back to basics. Are the brakes dragging?

Nole is SP-4 @ 20mph good or should it be more?

Another thing spider, if you installed a 48-12 reducer, fuse block etc. that old reducer shouldn't be hooked up at all, or affecting the lights. Something is wrong there.

Unless the amperage is down on your controller (or smaller then your FIL's), then I am not sure what else with out riding it or hooking a scanner to it and reading it.

If the speed was off, I would think MCOR not reaching 100%, but it must be to see 20mph. Just ensure you do not have any throttle points anywhere.... (bad Cable, bad lugs, bad or corroded connections, etc.)

No, they don't appear to be.

I completely agree. The 16 to 12 reducer is part of a harness that's plugged into the lights with two leads coming up to the battery. I'll have to go back and look but I may or may not have disconnected the leads to the battery. The harness from the light kit plugged into the smaller reducer and when I unplugged it the lights failed. This whole thing threw me for a loop.
