Re: Motor/wheels lock up coasting downhill

I sent the controller off for repair once before (for a different issue), but it came back testing fine. What would happen if the speed sensor were rotating a little? Come to think of it, it doesn't usually do it unless there is some bump or jostling of the cart - even braking can cause it. Could a long, unsupported speed sensor cable do that - I mean, twist a little and cause the controller to think it needs run-away protection? |

If the cart tries to exceed the max allowable speed (IE: going downhill) regen braking is still applied. If cart is pushed or pull after sitting still for about a second, the regen braking is still applied. If the F/R selector is changed while cart is moving, regen barking is still applied. --------- Not happening unless a bump is hit or brakes applied, sounds like a loose connection or broken wire. |

But I recently used long zip ties to secure the sensor lead to motor housing, and applied a few beads of permatex flexible assembly to the back of the sensor to tack it to the ends of the inner spring clip. But it's still exhibiting the same behavior. |

However, when batteries cut out briefly when I'm trying to make it go too fast uphill, it never causes the wheels to lock up - but then I have the accelerator pedal pressed, too. |
