Re: 2000 PDS Forward / Reverse Conversion (Bell Type to Rocker Switch on the Dash)
The stock PDS wiring harness plugs plug into the matching jacks provided on the XCT48500-PDS without any additions. deletions or modifications. In other words, the XCT48xxx-PDS has the internal diode, like the stock PDS (Curtis 1206MX) controller does.
However, the solenoid wiring is different for an XCT than it is for a stock PDS controller.
1. No pre-charge resistor is used.
2. A 3A diode is installed between the two small (coil) terminals. The banded end faces the Yellow (+) wire.
3. A 6A 660V diode (Regen Diode) is installed between the two large (High current contacts) terminals. The banded end faces the battery side (+) large terminal.
Attached is a schematic showing an XCT installed in a PDS cart.
The Gray, or the Orange/Red, goes on the common contact (center - usually) terminal. Depends on when the cart was built for the wire color.
