Flash Code 3: Left Motor Wiring Trip
A. Check the resistance of the left motor to determine if the fault is in the motor or the controller.
Set your meter to the 20 Ohm scale.
Touch the leads together to make sure the ohm meter is accurate. You should have 0 ohms at this point. If
not, your meter needs to be calibrated.
Place the red and black meter leads on the two bottom pins of the connector on the motor as shown in
figure 3.
Meter reading should be between 0.3 and 5 ohms.
Any reading outside this range, replace the motor.
B. Check the resistance of the M2 motor connector on the controller.
Disconnect the battery from the controller.
Set your meter to the 200k ohm scale.
Touch the leads together to make sure the meter is accurate. You should have 0 ohms at this point. If not,
your meter needs to be calibrated.
Place the red and black meter leads on the two bottom pins of the M2 motor connector on the controller as
shown in figure 4.
Meter reading should be approximately 93k ohms.
Any reading outside this range, replace the controller.
C. If the reading is within range, and the controller still displays a flash code, check the wiring for visible
damage and that all cables are connected properly. Make sure all connectors are seated properly in their
connectors.

Flash Code 4: Right Motor Disconnected
A. Check the connections to the right hand motor by disconnecting and reconnecting the motor harness.
Turn the controller off and then on again to clear the fault.
Flash Code 5: Right Motor Wiring Trip
A. Check the resistance of the right motor to determine if the fault is in the motor or the controller.
Set your meter to the 20 Ohm scale.
Touch the leads together to make sure the ohm meter is accurate. You should have 0 ohms at this point. If
not, your meter needs to be calibrated.
Place the red and black meter leads on the two bottom pins of the connector on the motor as shown in
figure 5.
Meter reading should be between 0.3 and 5 ohms.
Any reading outside this range, replace the motor.
