Re: smoking wires
How old is the cart? Generally this is caused by faulting or old wires. I would suggest replacing them as they probably have broken strands causing lots of loss (aka heat).

Re: smoking wires
Not having any idea of what cart you have, I would suggest looking in the " stickys " for your carts wiring diagram to make sure everything is connected properly!

Re: smoking wires

Re: smoking wires
Hi Guys, it seems like the recptacle on the cart is bad, having a hard time finding a new one, Can I change the recptacle over to a more modern style? As long as it is a 48 volt receptacle and plug, will it work?
