Correct Wiring for Solenoid (Diode)

Do I still need one? My controller was built in 2019 - and through some research here on the forums - it might have only been needed for pre-2017?

You are right, the Alltrax site also has no Regen diode in the YDRE XCT circuit.

My bad, I thought all XCT installs used the Regen diode.

Just remove the resistor.

This tread is very important to me. I will be doing the same thing after grandma takes the kids out on trick or treat.

no large diode and the small one is on correctly. Do not put small wire under the big wires

thanks
