FINGER THROTTLE DIY/TSS BYPASS ISSUES

[dbruya]

I'm attempting to run a finger throttle (diy). First thought was to go Munster, which is still an option, but I thought I'd give the DIY a college try.
I picked up a decent BMX Brake lever to run. Made some changes to it and it links up nicely.
Problem: I tried bypassing my TSS and when I fired her up, she redlined! Unplugged my TSS and no starty. (Obviously, the TSS is doing its job when unplugged). I've adjusted my throttle in accordance with Munster's install instructions, just wondering if anybody has been down this road.
One thing worth mentioning: I recently broke my kill switch off, so just running a tether. They have separate wiring but maybe there's a chance this is causing the redline effect??
Needless to say, I've played around enough and I'm ready to order Munster but I'm hesitant that this will still be problematic as I've basically mirrored their design.

Cheers

I can help you with the TSS issues. Check out this thread; http://www.snowest.com/forum/showthread.php?t=408965

If interested PM me for purchasing info.


As far as the sled redlining; my guess is you have your throttle cable adjusted far too tight. There is Nothing in the sleds electronics that would cause that.

I can say that I like my Munster Finger Throttle and everything was a very easy plug and play setup. Best of luck in your college try!!!

Finger throttle feedback

I am now going into my second season using the Munster Finger Throttle
It works very well and was easy to install
The only down side I have noticed is that even with the heater element
your throttle finger gets very cold but there is no way I would ever go back

Throttle cable isn't adjusted right, somehow airs getting into the motor.

Just tape the tss in and it will work fine.

I used to have my throttle block spun around in order to make it a finger throttle for 25plus yrs then munster came out with their finger throttle and I bought it and love it.

Make sure you have some slack in the cable.

Tape the tss and zip Ty it somewhere under the hood out of the way.
