Re: Voltage reducer problem
The input - is connected to the B- on controller. Two rocker switches are grounded to the frame, not the lights.
I checked frame voltage (after disconnecting fuse block) and found a voltage of 48.3v. I checked with positive terminal connected and negative disconnected and vice verse. Also with both connected and got the reading all three times. Actually higher with only positive terminal connected. I took the readings by using the negative battery terminal on last battery and touching frame.
So, it appears I have a problem. Batteries are brand new Trojans 8v. Installed a month ago or so. Frame and motor have dried mud on them except where I cleaned it to drain differential fluid etc. Cart is new to me and just acquired.
What next?! I have cleaned all electrical connections with wire brush and electrical contact cleaner spray, with the exception of the motor. New solenoid will be here tomorrow. Old one works but looks rough so it’s preventative.
