EV Troubles :(
specs:
1967 VW Beetle Electric converted car

- ADC 8" 203-06-4001 motor, 72-120VDC, single shaft, 8" diam
- Alltrax 7245 Controller
- Zivan NG1 Charger
- 12 x 12V Lead Acid deep cycle 110Ah batteries
- 144 Volts - 2 x 72 volts parallel config

car was kept in storage...two things happened...
1) Two batteries 12v that ran the main electric system for the car were stolen - they were replaced.
2) car was not charged for 1 month so 2 batteries from the engine pack developed bad cells and were replaced. now car charges fines, packs are full, main two batteries are good.

PROBLEM - engine does not start...
wires connecting everything seem solid.
I don't have any electric experience, so me looking at the numbers from a volt metter does very little...

Please help..
