Wiring for trolley?

[Carts69]

Ok, I’m looking for a diagram or someone who can talk me through wiring my trolley up, I have the battery,the on/off switch, the fuse, the pump, the speed controller, the voltage meter & a charging socket, can any of you guys help on this please?

There is a neat wiring diagram floating around on the forum, but can't find it at the moment.

Take a look at this https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://m.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DiZYedWOERN0&ved=0ahUKEwi7m8PY3-fbAhUISBQKHSjDB3YQwqsBCC0wAA&usg=AOvVaw3K4-VX7vocLpGQKGu8AqcW

How about now?

I have this one I have used and worked fine.  Can't take any credit for it I got it from this site.  The remote switch is a great addition and is very handy.

There is is @Tim Osborne, it's based on one I made, but I didn't have it available on mobile.

Although, I’ve now wired it up successfully I still have the fuse to wire in, it has 2 terminals on it, am I right in thinking this should be wired in just after the on/off switch, live & negative, any ideas?

There is a fuse in the schematic, did you read it carefully?

The fuse should of course be installed inline in series, not in parallel.

I don't want to be rude, but if I understand you correct, and you think the fuse should be wired across the live and negative in a parallel fashion, you need to do some reading on the basics of fuses and electronics. I know this sounds a bit on the harsh side, but depending on the size of your battery you are wiring up something that's potentially lethal, and a fire threat.

Do it right and to code (correct gauge, proper termination of wires), for your own safety, please.

I know this is a little late but this is how I wired mine up as I was using a plain PWM controller with no CAL feature. The relay is a 40amp automotive relay, and designed to take the load off the small microswitch in the pump which often burns out with the constant switching we subject them to.

Brilliant decision to use a relay, @Marko067.

It was shared either on here or another forum some time ago and made perfect sense to me. So when I started going through microswitches every couple of months I decided to wire one into my system. I've not had to replace a microswitch on a pump since.
