replaced all 4 microswitches on steering as 1 had fluctuating resistance.didn't cure anything. accel unit and ouput voltage checks out against manual going smoothly from 1.2 to 8.98 volts.checked contactor detecting circuit and get 26.1v on all 4 contacts.checked mps and seems i may have a problem there but not sure.if testing with motors not spinning(since the thing mostly won't run) voltage stays at 8.89v or so.got motors to spin a bit and voltage goes from 2.23 to 5volts depending on accel position(factory says 10v released and 1v wot). but then contactors drop out if volts go too high or too low so i try to hold accel pedal at same speed.sometimes it'll run and sometimes it drops after a few seconds.resetting f/r switch works but only if i throw it in opposite direction.switching from eco to power trips it but going from power to eco doesn't most of the time.there is no steady behavior.
there is a sweet spot on accel pedal where the motors will run but not all the time.
if pedal is barely pushed so only the microswitch clicks the motors will hum a bit longer before contactor drops out.the more gas the quicker the drop out.had it running on blocks for about 8mn and nothing seems to get overly hot so not sure what to do next!!
where are you in alabama?
