BASIC LOW VOLTAGE FUNCTIONS
► Supply
12v to controller with ign key
► Assure driver’s foot is off the accelerator pedal at
ignition
► Turn on a vacuum pump with ignition, if necessary
► Disconnect
both voltages from DC/DC converter
when charging or with ign off
► Turn on ventilation fans and turn off controller
when charging
Relay - a remote switch
► The

► Disconnect
► Disconnect
► Supply 12v
► Turn
DC/DC from Traction Pack
DC/DC from Aux Battery
to vent fans
on vent fans when charger plugged in
► Allow
power to controller at ignition turn on only if
foot is off accelerator pedal
►5
Circuits are fused
Wire
► Use
10 gauge wire on 12v power circuit to
DC/DC converter, fuse position #3
► Use
► Use
30 amp fuse in position #3
14 or 16 gauge wire and 10 amp 250v
fuses elsewhere
Plan and Be Neat
► Draw
out your project, chose wire colors
and component placement
► Use
terminal blocks and ¼” spade crimped
connectors throughout
► Bundle
and route wires neatly, use tie wraps
