If your vehicle is equipped with AC motor, then the motor is maintenance free! 

 

Maintenance of the Controller: 

CAUTION 

Only a qualified electrician is allowed to do the maintenance for the controller. 

WARNING! 

Do not open the controller for any reason. Moto Electric Vehicles does not sell internal components 

for  the  controller.  If  the  controller  becomes  faulty,  a  new  controller  is  needed.  Opening  the 

controller will void the warranty on the controller. 

 

CLEANING 

It is recommended to keep the controller clean at all times. The fault history should be checked and cleared 

periodically. 

 

Please use the following cleaning procedure for routine maintenance: 

1)  Turn the power key to the OFF position. 

2)  Remove power by disconnecting the battery. 

3)  Discharge  the  capacitors  in  the  controller  by  connecting  a  load  (such  as  a  contactor  coil  or  a  horn) 

across the controller

’s B+ and B- terminals. 

4)  Remove any dirt or corrosion from the connector areas. The controller should be wiped clean with moist 

rag. Dry it before reconnecting the battery. The controller should not be subjected to pressured water 

flow from either a standard hose or a power washer.   

5)  Make sure the connections are tight, but do not over tighten them.   

 

Faulty History File 

The handheld programmer (to be ordered separately) can be used to access the controller

’s fault history file. 

The programmer will read out all the faults the controller has experienced since the last time the history file 

was cleared. Faults such as contactor faults may be the result of loose wires; contractor wiring should be 

carefully checked. Faults such as over temperature may be caused by operator habits or by overloading. 

After  a  problem  has  been  diagnosed  and  corrected,  it  is  a  good  idea  to  clear  the  fault  history  file.  This 

allows the controller to accumulate a new file of faults. 

 

Please note that the Curtis brand of controllers have a flashing light on the outside of the controller. These 

flashing lights can be translated to fault codes if a hand held is not present. Please look up the model of 

controller your cart has online for the service manual. The controller service manual will container the fault 

code readings.
