Sounds good. From what I am reading a USB cable only has 4 wires so there has to be some that are doubled up. If thats the case I can build the cable and will be in good shape to play around to try and program one of these things. Adding the loops is easy too. ---

I was incorrect. I have the programming plug. Four wires and two loops. Only four wires terminated at the usb end. ![IMG_5026](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/2/2db7aa616f4950533d16de477819867db5929d73.jpeg) ![IMG_5025](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/b/b2fb9b4681ac82e3a089db150c2ee23cf5b9a759.jpeg) ![IMG_5024](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/4/45df4f71d8d8ec07cd7c440b82d1ddfdfedb081f.jpeg) ![IMG_5023](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/2/2207761fd966005a3b1c96b2d42e89f3605e84aa.jpeg) ---

Sweet. I am going to play with my controller and if i can get the PC to work on it I will let you know. Then we can play with programming one of yours. ---

If you unplug the 4 pin are the red an black in the square pins. This picture just has it rotated opposite. ![Screenshot_20231010_230622_Gallery](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/d/da10f5c273bdb6326fa3f1f7ff808d03e4850ef7.jpeg) ---

It is the same part number. so it is likely the same. ---

Yes, mine is the same pin out colors and locations as yours. ---

I am just messing around with my PC to get the USB drivers to work with the dongle. This tech is so old compared to the new computers ---

I was able to get the software running and able to see the programming cable under Windows 10. I was just never able to power the correct place on the controller to get it to talk. I just sent the controller and programming cable off to another person to attempt communication with an Anvil and spare controller. ---

The dongle is on loan and should be available to others in time. ---

I put in a new controller and now the Anvil runs but only after i give it a slight push to get started. Any idea what could cause this. I ordered a new speed controller to see if that helps. My windows 10 cannot detect the drivers even though the dongle shows up as a device. The cables on My Anvil to hook up to the dongle are much different than what is in the instructions so no sure what the right wires will be. I just know that USB is only 4 wires. 2 communication and 1 power and 1 ground ---

Tomberlin directly had one. ---

But it only works if i turn the rear wheels manually after I Jack it up or let it roll when its on the ground. ---

That will be kind of underpowered. Anvil oem motor will push 50mph. I have a replacement Sevcon controller, If you can wait a few day for a client to test it. It’s been a few years since I did my own, so I’m seeing if it can be diy. Otherwise, if you are near someone with dvt, they could help. ---

Any idea why it would behave like this. If the new controler is good then its either the motor or speed sensor. Everything was fine then after a week sitting in the garage it just jerkwd a few times then nothing until i put in the new controller. ---

Might be throttle pot if it’s only super slow. It would lurch slightly but not develope any torque. ---

I was thinking the same but if i just slightly roll it with my foot or am on an incline the Anvil with get up to full speed and drive fine. Its just has to get 1 tooth past the speed sensor and then it will spin [Previous page](https://community.electricforum.com/t/anvil-7-5kw-motor-like-the-8kw-kinetek/26526.md?page=2) [Next page](https://community.electricforum.com/t/anvil-7-5kw-motor-like-the-8kw-kinetek/26526.md?page=4)
