Greetigs all: Last Saturday, I connected up my 1992 Solectria Force to a Brusa AMC 320 controller. Nothing happended. In addition to the incoming high voltage...
Hi Gary- Can you send me schematics? (in particular, of the AMC interfacing) Are you outside of the voltage range upper limit for an AMC320? (or this one in...

My AMC300 stops driving sometimes when I hit a small, sharp bump. Suddenly... no power. I re-boot, and all is well, but its a bit dangerous. Any ideas what...

Mr. Childers: (and all other Force enthusiasts) The first pass schmatics for my attempt to connect a Brusa AMC320 controller to a 1992 Solectrica Force are in...
Aaron Birenboim: A couple questions that might help. 1) Do you know if the 12 volt system (lights, fans, etc.) blink when you hit the bump? Can we isolate...
... I hadn't noticed, but its dead now, so its harder to test. ... Similarly, I wasn't watching the analog voltmeter, end even so... It might not show up on...
Aaron: The 10 pin connector to the motor carries tachometer information and themperature information. The AMC320 has the same signals ending in the DBM-9...
Yesterday the AH meter in my 99 Force died: the red and green discharge/recharge LED's are now both dark, the green does not flicker even when charging, and...
I am hearing a new sound in my 1999 Force that seems to be getting more and more noticeable. It is a fluttering sound that only seems to be there when the...
How many miles are on your motor? Surely the motor uses ball or roller bearings, not sleeve bearings. I'd think such bearings should last a long time. Make...
About 27K and I agree it doesn't make since but I do know that other Solectria Forces have had to replace the bearing in their motor. I have the car put up on...
My 1999 Force has been making noises under the same circumstances for about 5000 (started at about 17,000 miles) miles now. No noise while coasting, but when...
... first rule of electronics maintainence.... check the contacts! I's start by pulling all the wires from the AH-counter, cleaning them, and putting them...
More info: the interface box input cable has an open lead. This short cable has a six position Molex connector on one end (4 wires) and a 12 position orange...
Bad info: The fried component in the interface cable was a blown in-line Picofuse, not a small resistor. I've no idea what the replacement value should be....

How does the controller board for the AmpHour meter look. This sounds like the problem I had twice that I fixed by rewiring the board. The trace that carries...
Occasionally, but all too often, my Force will just die. I'll be driving along and suddenly the drive system acts like it has been switched out of drive. The...
... I had the same problem, it occurred on very small bumps... like a manhole cover. Pretty sure it was wiring, but I haven't fixed it yet, so I'm not totally...
When I was first getting my Force converted to a Brusa AMC320 controller, I had the maximum allowable voltage set too low when I programmed the controller....
How Much Regen Braking Do You Get? I have been watching my KWH meter on my Solectria. During in-town driving where one frequently needs to stop for traffic,...
10% has been what I have been getting as well. -Will Will Beckett Beckett PC Solutions 4189 Baker Ave. Palo Alto, CA 94306-3908 (650) 494-6922 phone & fax ...
I have posted before on this... but I'll go fishing again. I replaced the computer connectors to my AMC 300 (1992 force), but still I get no action at all...
My 2000 Force has a dead AH display, again. I think this problem is within the AH interface box supply cable. This foot long cable, with a 6 position Molex...
I need to make a note on what this resistor is. I believe it is 1K but you can call Kevin at Solectria to find out for sure. Most importantly, fix the ...
How usefull is Battery Equalization with Gel Cell betteries? I have a 1992 Solectrial Force with twelve MK Battery (East Penn) Gel batteries. I have seen...
I put PowerCheqs in two Forces and feel that they have helped extend the life of my batteries. -Will Will Beckett Beckett PC Solutions 4189 Baker Ave. Palo...
Hi Will and all, My understanding is that the charger used by Solectria is so well programmed that the batteries maintain a very stable balance in the pack. ...
