That is a pretty good list.
I called Ken and we talked about a couple of the things that we are going to look over.
With this controller, the electronics are powered by the 12v aux battery.
The electronics MUST be turned on first, and off last.
So, we'll confirm that the the electronics get their +12vdc and after that, the pre-charge is enabled, and finally, the main contactor.
For shut-down, we'll make sure that the contactor is turned Off first, that the pre-charge is off, followed by the electronics.
We're going to go over as much of the total wiring as possible too.
I believe he is running a prestolite motor, and I am familiar with that motor
as I have one in an old school Honda Civic wagon.
So, we'll run down the list as we go along and see if we find anything that needs done prior to installing another controller.
We'll be doing this mid-week, and we'll update to the post after we're done.
