Thanks for posting these. Any advice for the ignition switch? I have to hook a 12V 40A relay between the key and the main contactor? I think I need a separate battery to power this step.
@allawayjared i found a hot wire in the harness and spliced the contactor to it. i ran my vacuum pump off the ignition swich also. i use a battery rather than a dc to dc converter. i have a 1.5 amp charger for the vehicle battery. i could not see spending $200-300 to replace the good battery i already have just for a dc to dc converter. did you get your precharge resistor? it will save you popping a cap in your motor controler. i found out the hard way.
I just tried to put a video response to this. I don't know if it worked.
