Still R70 truck

Customer sent us the A.C. Inverter for a Still R70 Truck. The truck has slow and hesitant drive, and we can not find anything wrong with the A.C. Inverter module. Does anyone know what else could cause this problem.

Hi...a bit to late probably but..
The alternator is the usual culprit with these trucks..a slipping belt or bad connection. Also a dirty foot controller pot can play havoc,usually after pressure washing etc.
Worst case scenarios are usually a few teeth missing off the ring gear or a wiring defect...or....a controller fault. The inverters usually fail completely,and smell very burnt!! Hope this will help your customer out.
Regards,
Simon

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
