Hi, my name is XXXXX XXXXX X will assist you today. I saw that you are working on a 65# XXXXX Kota T/M. I have a few questions for you. I need to know what series ( Edge, Terrova, Fortex etc) your motor is?
What was changed for you to need to reconnect the cables?
Also what is the voltage of the motor.
Please post back with the answers so I can get started.
