Which wires on the controller go to which on the motor? There are no directions and no color coding to insure it is accurate.
I have a Hacker B20L and a Master 18-3P controller.
Thanks,
Jason

There is no wrong way to wire them, just solder them on, if the motor is running backwards, then just reverse any two wires. Don't ask me it sounds strange but it works.

What he said... hook up all 3 wires, it makes no difference which ones go to which ones. If the motor happens to run backwards, switch any 2 of the 3 wires and you are in business.

They're right you know. Connect all 3 then swap over any 2 if it runs the wrong way. That's just the way 3-phase controllers work (and that's why there's no colour coding).
