throttle control


 

hi all,?
over the past years i've been reading up on the conversion of my small canal-boat in Amsterdam. i recently bought a second hand kit, not sure if it all supposed to work (together).
i do have the ME1003 motor working on the Alltrax SPM48400 and the throttle. this is a throttle with a middle stand, so likely for marine. the alltrax does not support a reverse itself, some external relais needs to be added. if connected to the alltrax it just sees one end of the throttle as 0 and the other and as 100%, the middle (neutral) about 50%
?
this is my problem.
the trottle, unbranded, has three wires. if i measure resistance i measure between 0 and about 5.5ohm with one of the contacts (and either of the other contacts), between the other contacts nothing changes when i move the handle.?

What can i do to use this throttle on this controller? anything more i can measure? i was hoping one of the wires would give some value is it is one or the other side of the middle - does that exsists, how do i measure this.
anyway, hope you can help me,
thanks

I have used a number of alltrax ?controllers in golf carts and they can be set up to use a 0-5k ohm potentiometer, or other throttle setups but that is the most common and lowest tech.

You should be able to find the info on the Alltrax instructions, they used to have extensive documentation on their website.?

you would simply hook your throttle up to the proper terminals on the controller and a separate switch for forward/reverse.?

making your throttle run like a boat with a center off, forward by moving the lever forward of center and reverse by moving the lever back of center would probably be a complicated project. ?Doable but I don’t know how off the top of my head.?
