I have the exact same go kart and I had a dune racer power wheel I used the front of the power wheel and the seat. Gives it a really cool look. Can't wait to see this completed.

[@ROCKBOTTOMCUSTOMS]

That sounds cool. I hope to have the next episode out this weekend.

Trying to hook up a 72v battery on a 72v motorkit yall know why it sparks up when I go try to connect it?? Wires are all good and correct double checked and everything, everything brand new as well

[@ROCKBOTTOMCUSTOMS]

Hard to say for sure, check voltage with a multimeter it should be close to 75 on a full charge. Sometimes you can get a small spark when you first go to connect it that's just capacitors charging but it shouldn't keep sparking like it's trying to weld itself. If so something isn't right like positive and negative touching each other somewhere

[@haydenc6291]

Ooo how did you connect the reverse switch to the controller? I got the same kit.

[@ROCKBOTTOMCUSTOMS]

It plugged right in to one of the connectors on the module but I don't remember how it was labeled exactly. In the final episode of the build I put a rundown of all the wires and labels and how they connected, it should help. I know they were translated and some of them didn't really make sense and I had to do some googling to get them all figured out.

[@henry8679]

Can u give a tutorial on how to hook the wires

[@ROCKBOTTOMCUSTOMS]

In the final episode part 4 of that series, part ways through the video I do a rundown of all the connections if that helps

[@ericpirrone1982]

[@Duane002]

[@slowburn_1725]
