Test Procedure 24 - Voltage to Dynamic Braking Solenoid Coil
1. Turn the key switch to OFF and place the forward and reverse switch in NEUTRAL. Leave the batteries
connected and leave the Z plug connected to the controller.
2. Place the black (-) probe of a multimeter, set to Volts DC, on the negative (-) post of battery No. 6 and
place the red (+) probe on the small post on the dynamic braking solenoid (with 18 gauge red and
orange/white wires attached) (Figure 21-58). Turn the key switch to ON; the reading should be Full Bat-
tery Voltage. If the reading is incorrect, check positive input to the main solenoid (Test Procedure 7).
Check continuity of the 18 gauge red wire from the dynamic braking solenoid to the main solenoid (Test
Procedure 25).

1. Turn the key switch to OFF and place the forward and reverse switch in NEUTRAL. Disconnect the bat-
teries. Leave the Z plug connected to the controller.
2. Place the black (-) probe of a multimeter, set to ohms (Ω), on the small post of the main solenoid (with
the red, blue, and red/white wires attached) and place the red (+) probe on the small post of the
dynamic braking solenoid (with the red and orange/white wires attached) (Figure 21-59). The reading
should be continuity. If the reading is incorrect, repair or replace the red wire.
Test Procedure 26 - Voltage from Z5 (Brown Wire) to the Dynamic Braking Solenoid
Coil
1. Turn the key switch to OFF and place the forward and reverse switch in NEUTRAL. Leave the batteries
connected and leave the Z plug connected to the controller.
2. Place the black (-) probe of a multimeter, set to Volts DC, on the small post of the dynamic braking sole-
noid (with 18 gauge brown wire attached) and place the red (+) probe on the positive (+) post of battery
No. 1 (Figure 21-60). Turn the key switch to ON, place the forward and reverse rocker switch in for-
ward, and depress the accelerator pedal. The dynamic braking solenoid should click when the acceler-
ator limit switch is activated. The reading should be Full Battery Voltage. If the reading is incorrect,
check continuity of the brown wire (Test Procedure 27).
Test Procedure 27 - Dynamic Braking Solenoid Brown Wire Continuity
1. Turn the key switch to OFF and place the forward and reverse switch in NEUTRAL. Disconnect the bat-
teries and disconnect the Z plug from the controller.
2. Make sure that the brown wire is in the Z5 position on the Z plug.
3. Place the black (-) probe of a multimeter, set to ohms (Ω), on the small post of the dynamic braking
solenoid (with the brown wire attached) and place the red (+) probe in the Z5 (brown wire) connector
position in the Z plug (Figure 21-61, Page 21-42). The reading should be continuity. If the reading is
incorrect, repair or replace the wire.
