New controller and pot box ??

77OMEGA · 05-03-2008, 04:27 PM

Hi,
I just got a new controller and pot box. My controller has the M-, B+,B-, and A2 connectors. I found the fleet wiring diagram. Will it work for my old early 80's model cart's forward/reverse switch. I am a little scared to just hook it up. I don't want to fry my new controller. If anyone has a really good diagram with the solenoid connections and everything, it would be great. I saw a conversion diagram that would have worked, but it didn't have the A2 connection.

Thanks,
Kirk

The A2 connection is not needed. The A2 terminal is used for plug braking.....plug braking is kinda like regen but it does not put any power back into the batteries.

Thanks, I got the diagram off of the Extreme DC forum. I think I can get it running. I'll keep you posted.

Wow, what a difference. Smooth from stop to full throttle.

The diagram I got from the Extreme DC forum worked perfectly. Finished hookups and went for a ride. Glad I made the change.

Thanks for all the help.

Which wiring diagram might that be?

Probably the diagram you posted for me Roady. Simplest one I've seen.
