THE CHARGE CIRCUIT

DS, DS VILLAGER 4, 800, 810 AND 850

The vehicle charge circuit consists of the following components:
• charger receptacle
• receptacle fuse link
• sense lead fuse
• onboard computer
• batteries
The negative terminal of the receptacle is connected to the onboard computer (Figure 3-2, Page 3-3). The
10-gauge black wire from the onboard computer connects to the B– terminal on the speed controller, and the
6-gauge black wire (also on the controller B– terminal) goes through the onboard computer and connects to
the negative (–) post of battery no. 4. The positive terminal of the charger receptacle is connected to the pos-
itive (+) post of battery no. 1. The gray wire (sense lead) from the charger receptacle is connected to the
sense lead fuse, which is connected to the gray wire from the onboard computer.
If the charger works with one vehicle, but does not work with another vehicle, then most likely the problem is
in the vehicle charge circuit. Check the connections between the 18-gauge gray wire from the charger recep-
tacle, the sense lead fuse, and the 18-gauge gray wire from the onboard computer. In addition, check the
charger receptacle fuse link and its connections.
