Where do I test the pot box at? And how do I set it if it’s way off? Still having issues.

Taken from electriccarpartscompany dot com.

"After the potbox has been mounted, operation of the pot can be tested by measuring the resistance between the two wires with an ohmmeter. With the pedal not applied, the resistance should be less than 50 ohms. As the pedal is applied, the resistance should rise smoothly until it reaches a value between 4500 and 5500 ohms. Values below 4500 ohms may cause a reduction in efficiency and top speed. Values above 7000 ohms indicate a defective potbox, and will cause controller shutdown."

So put the meter directly on the wires? Or where they connect to the controller?

Pull the wires off the controller and plug the tester leads into the wire spades.
