Schematic

Seems like a good time to get a layout of the system drawn up to make sure I'm covering everything.

This schematic shows the layout of the main parts and how they interconnect, it breaks down the physical areas of the car and shows what will go where.
Blue boxes are things that already exist in the car and the Green boxes show components that will need to be added.

As I haven't touched the car yet I'm sure some other things will present themselves but it seems a good place to start.


The Curtis controller has a 'typical' wiring layout...
The datasheet is here http://curtisinstruments.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=Products.home#/motorcontrollers/64

I've also stumbled across this one page wiring system in a forum, this was marked as 'free to share'. Not exactly as I intend to use but a useful reference that makes some sense of the curtis diagram, for example the Pot2 appears to be used on the Brake peddle to provide regen during braking.
