melex 202 slow on uphill and resistor coils get extremely hot

[Riderrob88]

I just got a melex 202 i re wired by the melex 212 wiring diagram and it did not move. When i got the cart it woukd not climb hills. It would only move on down hill and flat surfaces. I went through the wiring and used a multi meter and got it working. However it will not climb even slight grades well. The battery voltage is good, the motor seems to be working fine, the solenoid seems to be working fine....however the coils will glow red after trying to climb a hill and result in me pushing the cart while the wife accelerates. I knkw this isnt right. Any help is appreciated thanks in advance.


Btw this is my first sparky, i have fixed gas carts in the past but this is a new ball game for me
