Re: throttle problem,new controller,throttle works backwards
Glad you got it running. How about a little summary to close out this thread. You have a 5K-0 controller in your E-Z-go? The existing potentiometer was a 0-5K. You replaced the rheostat with a $3.00 radio shack part? I'm really interested in more details on this fix. Any part numbers would be helpful. Thanks in advance, Jim

Re: throttle problem,new controller,throttle works backwards
rvyn 20s b303 05dc 0to5k original.radio shack 9h1 b5k.5k to 0. just take potentiometer off where the throttle lever is and resolder output wires to new pot.new pot might have too much throw to get to 0. but you get the picture. haven't put on yet but looks the same. will get back to you if i have problems. Thanx,John

Re: throttle problem,new controller,throttle works backwards
OK I should have gone with my original thought which was Ican fix this with what I got. You guys pointed me in the right direction. Seems curtis patented a 0 to 5k pot and not a 5k to 0. So what you do is face the pot in the other direction, if the shaft is facing left face it right and vice versa. Then adjust it 5k to 0. Works great. Save the $3.00. Thanx, John

Re: throttle problem,new controller,throttle works backwards
OK,in my quest to be even dumber I didn't think to change wires on pot.Blue was on 1 brown was on 2 and then connected to 3 with the resistor unit. Ididn't try it since I already hooked it up.That might be the easiest solution. Thanx,John
