The right drive motor controller caught fire and melted. All the wiring and motor check out and the truck rolls freely doesnt seem to be any brake / drive unit binding. wanted to know if the right controller is the master or slave and what kind of programming would need to be done after controller replacement.
TVH has a controller but we dont know if it comes with the small printed cicuit board, has amyone seen this problem before and any suggestions, the customer ran the truck 3 shifts with an opportunity charge between 2nd and 3rd so we think it may just be high amps over usuage, fuse did not blow etc any help would be appreciated.
