Wiring info
1974 elcar:
More wiring diagram and connection information. a good test to see if car has wrong connections IS to use a large jump battery starter pack. Connect starter to each battery connector seperately ALSO make sure to turn on built in light with jump starter. A short will show unusually high load and dim light. Connect jumper cables to battery connectors first then plug into battery jump starter, just enough to make a connection. Get ready to quickly unplug if light dims showing a short to avoid battery damage and an over current condition. The OEM motor and---- trolley car or subway style switch (rated @ 550amps per OEM label!!!!).------ Italian made are very designed and will last forever. The drive train is well engineered and worth restoring since simple and industrial in quality and durability, strong and durable. Bravisimo!! Restore those durable made zeles!!!!
Fantastico!!!!---!-!!!

This post is created to help preserve zeles as they originally were made. The battery technology is much better now . I plan on putting lithiums in this thing. Also battery meters are better now such as constantly lit LED volt meters. Will post pics when project is done, getting Fiat 500 brake cylinder rebuilt used for brakes.
The battery connectors were disconnected from speed selector switch since battery connections were wrong. ALL switch selector positions connections were carefully mapped out.
This is closest thing to any tech info available on the web for a Zagato Zele. Place in Italy never responded to my request. An experienced motor rebuilder can rewind this motor if needed be. But I seriously doubt this will ever have to be done since big and heavy, definetely super duty and industrial grade.
