RZ350 to 500 PV Controller swap

#1 Post by chadwick » Tue Sep 20, 2005 4:39 pm

I want to swap a RZ350 (85 US) PV Controller to my RZ500 (85 CAN).<br>I have heard some wires need to be switched. Anyone know the tricks?

No problems in doing that. Only the plug needs to be changed. The wires are the same colours, so the swap is rellay easy.<p>I have done it myself.<p>Steen

I wired it the same but I can't get the rotation to open all the way. With the adjusters in the cable maxed out in one direction the valve will not open fully.

I think my cables are switched. I'll fix tonight and test.

In case you don't know this - they are actually numbered - there are numbers on the pulley between the cylinders and on the YPVS module - you just have to trace the cable (easier said than done i know) but just a tip in case you are not aware of this.<p>Rob

I had the #1 to the #1 but I noticed that the cables are slightly different lengths. The difference should be just enough.
