Regarding the use of the Ovonic NiMH modules While they might be useable, to do so however is with great risk. NiMH chemistry charging is done with overcharging balancing, which puts them in high risk of thermal runaway, and catching on fire. If you we?re going to use the Ovon...

I do not undrestand why you say "Clearly the truck will need new batteries to work?" There is a good chance that those NiMh batteries can possibly be "woken Up" via a series of very slow trickle charges followed by full discharges.?Charge at say 500ma per battery. Don will cor...

Hi Eric, Thanks for the input. I think the 18650 cells are a better choice for several reasons. The Prismatic cells, often called "Yellow Bricks", don't have the energy density of 18650's and you can't even fit a 100 AH pack in our battery box. However, at 3.2 volts per cell,...

Ok gang coolant does matter. It must be Dexcool and will say it on the container. AutoZone or Oriellys, yes its typically orange. The conversion to NiMH from lead on the 1997s were not an easy modification. The programming of the BPCM alone was not enough to make it all work....

Step one would be to check for power and ground and a pulse resulting from each output with a voltmeter. You will need to jack up only one wheel and spin it very slowly in neutral, otherwise the motor itself won't turn over, rather the differential will. Once, I had the encode...

It’s a square type wave 0-12V. Signal A leads B by 90 degrees going forward, and the opposite in reverse. I notice DTC 089 is the same except "forward control circuit failed power up". In the diagnostics section for this DTC it first indicates to check phase winding resistance...
