colorcode throttle

[Thomas K]

hi everyone,

I like to know what wires to connect with my throttle.
i got a black green brown lightbrown and a white wire on the throtlle.
can anyone tell me how I should connect it to the controller?
and I like to know how I can tset the motor without the controller (if that is possible)

thanks in advance

Hi Deffie,

Is it a GM throttle, and if so which kit did it come with, is it a thumb or twist throttle, and what type of plug/s does it have fitted?

Also, which motor do you have, and is it wired for an external controller?

Hi Alan,

Thanks for your reply.
about my throttle, its a mp3 kit throttle with plug, but I had to cut the plug since I got a external controller  the BAC241
i believe.
I never used the throttle since I only used the PAS system.
But now that I don't get anything out of my set (totaly broken) i   was wondering if I could test it with the throttle so I can use it again.
 I've taken the set to some young guy that lives nearby to see if he can fix it.
I'm a totol noob when it comes to electricity and he's a electrical engineer, so I really hope he can figure out wats wrong with it and fix it for me.
I must say that i'm a bit dissapointed with the set.
I've bought it in February, and have ridden it about 1.5 month in total, the rest of the time was spend on waiting for new parts that had been broken (specially the controller, i'm at my 4th )
If the guy can fix it, im planning to sell it and buy me an prepared bike, but one that wil give me power to ride about 33 km/h.

I got a black, green, brown, light brown, and a white wire on the throttle.

Other than you having a light brown wire instead of an orange one, the rest appears to be exactly the same as Duck's throttle wiring, so I presume they will also be connected the same:

Since the MP3s have a prefabricated harness with specific plugs it doesn't follow the same color coding as the MP2 or older it can be a bit daunting, BUT NO MORE! I have included the wire colors and operation below:

Twist Throttle Wire Colors:
Black - Ground (Battery -)
White - 5v To throttle POT hall sensor
Green - Throttle Signal to controller (hall sensor output)
Orange - High Voltage!!! (Battery + supply to battery gauge LEDs and light switch)
Brown - Light Switch Signal (switched battery + output for LED lights)

Please let us know what the outcome is with your problem.

OMG, I was quoted! Good to see all the hard work I did is still in circulation :-)
