The controller was repaired, upgraded to current specs and cooling, I upgraded to the current 2 stage throttle switch and wiring harness.


Am I hitting the thermal protection mode??


Hard street driving, 2nd to 3rd gear full acceleration, everything works fine for a couple of minutes, then, During long accelerations, boost and voltage down to lowest of 17-18V in second gear, then change to 3rd gear and the voltage goes to 25.9V and boost/power is obviously less. (cool weather this morning). I can slow down and do the same again.


Is this normal thermal protection mode? Any suggestions to get it working fully for longer? I have seen Steve's cooling duct. any other suggestions.
