Okay guys,
I'm working on an Invacare Buzz HMV mobility scooter and found it to have a bad 5k throttle pot. I replaced it with another 5k pot and now it works. Unfortunately, the throttle wigwag only travels about 25 degrees and the pot has a 300 degree mechanical travel. Because of this, I have to manually turn the pot to get any speed. If I attach the wigwag, it doesn't turn far enough to really get any power due to the limited travel distance of the wigwag. Is there a way to tweak the new pot or is there a different type of pot or rheostat I need to replace it with? I can't find the old pot that I removed, so I don't know the model number of it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
