Action P51 A?
« on: March 21, 2013, 05:36:32 pm »
Hi guys, does anyone know what a Action P51 A is?
How do you wire it up etc.
I have been on the products listings but it must be an old product
as it is not listed, so sadly no wiring diag.

Very old! Pre-dates my ownership (2007). Any chance of a picture of the circuit board (component side up)?

It's a forerunner of the current P80 speed controller i.e. 20A continuous. Wiring is as per P80 http://www.action-electronics.co.uk/pdfs/P80.pdf. Ken - I'm not Bob the Builder but I might be able to fix it. It depends on what's wrong with it and maybe also if I can find any of the original PIC chips for it. PM me if interested.

Don't be daft - I can recognise a joke when I see one (but slap your waist?? Another strange Yellowbelly tradition?)
