Before any electrical service is performed on TCT model
vehicles, the Run-Tow/Maintenance switch must be
placed in the ‘Tow/Maintenance’ position.
If a power wire (battery, motor or controller) is disconnect-
ed for any reason on the TCT model vehicle, the Run-
Tow/Maintenance switch must be left in the ‘Tow/Mainte-
nance’ position for at least 30 seconds after the circuit is
restored.
To prevent electrical shock, the BL- wire must
be removed before discharging the controller
by shorting the B+ and B- terminals of the con-
troller with a large screwdriver. Be sure to hold
screwdriver by the insulated portion.
Note the location of the wiring on the controller before remov-
ing wiring from controller (Ref Fig. 8).
Using an insulated wrench, remove the BL- wire from
the battery.
Remove the environmental cover.
Remove the controller mounting bolts and remove the
controller.
Mount new controller and reconnect wiring. Tighten the
controller mounting bolts to 132 - 168 in. lbs. (15 - 19
Nm) torque and the terminal bolts to 120 - 144 in. lbs.
(13.5 - 16.3 Nm) torque.
Replace the environmental cover and tighten the mount-
ing bolts to 35 - 44 in. lbs. (4 - 5 Nm) torque.
