Dc reducer issues
Hey everyone, I got me a Dc reducer from carts unlimited and installed it this morning... Got her all wired up except the 48v pack -. With the key off I touched the connector to the pack - and got a abnormal spark. Ok... I double check everything and all looks good. The reducer is wired per included instructions.
Yellow wire: Pack + blue wire : pack - tan wire : trigger wire/ key switch out red wire : fuse block black wire : - buss My v meter shows pack voltage between blue wire and - buss bar??? I disconnect all accessories from - buss bar and fuse block and same thing?? I disconnect fuse block, trigger wire, - buss bar leaving only the yellow wire connected to the pack +. I measure between pack + and blue wire and I still show pack voltage. The question is...Is the reducer internally shorted, wired wrong or just plain defective? |

Re: Dc reducer issues
The DC reducer will draw spark when it is initially connected. To avoid the spark hold a 470 ohm resistor between the DC - cable and the main battery - for several minutes prior to connecting.

I’m not quite following. Do you get 12v at fuse block?
