What do you mean not connected? Mine always shows a huge spark when connected the first time.

Re: dc converter install question HELP!!!
If you've got the 12 volt side of the reducer connected to your battery pack, I hope you haven't already destroyed it. The 12 volt + and - are the leads to power the accessories. The high voltage wires are to the battery pack + and -, though they may not end up attached to the battery terminals themselves (possibly battery side of the solenoid and controller B-).

Re: dc converter install question HELP!!!
OK, I was just going by your post a couple up: "the 12 volt side is connected to batteries on both positive and neg". Are you saying the 48V + sparks when you connect to the battery pack even while the 48V- is not connected to anything?

Re: dc converter install question HELP!!!
You've got several posts on this same problem. Lets try to figure out what you've got. So your 48V- is not connected to anything, looks like a 4 wire converter. What are the other 3 wires connected to?
