SW asks for clarification...

I'm still a little fuzzy about how that pot is wired. Is it off at 0 ohms and full on at 5K ohms (70 degrees)? Why did he think that "6K pot" would cause damage?

It's not the 5 vs 6k ohms that's the problem, it's that I shorted 2 tabs on the controller together so I could use the forklift pot in its *2-wire* configuration rather than in the *3-wire* config that the controller is expecting.
It's one of these things that would take me an hour to properly describe in writing and in a diagram vs a minute to show you in person. Frustrating!
I'm just going to order the expensive potentiometer rather than trying to mod this one to make it work.
