Important Notes

• Verify compatibility with your specific equipment model, manufacturing number, serial number, and production revision before ordering.
• Homelite OEM parts suppliers identify 997000068 specifically as “Drive Controller.”
• This is an electronic control component and should not be confused with a drive motor, wiring harness, switch, relay, mounting bracket, or other electrical component.
• The drive controller is designed to regulate electrical power used by applicable equipment systems.
• Do not select an electronic controller based solely on appearance or connector configuration. Controllers that appear similar may use different programming, electrical specifications, connectors, or equipment configurations.
• Diagnose the equipment's electrical and drive system before replacing the controller whenever possible, as wiring, connectors, switches, motors, batteries, or other components can also cause drive-related problems.
• Inspect the wiring harness, electrical connectors, controller mounting points, drive motor connections, battery connections, and surrounding electrical components when replacing the controller.
• Replace burned, melted, corroded, loose, cracked, damaged, or otherwise defective connectors and wiring as necessary.
• Disconnect the equipment's power source and follow the manufacturer's electrical service procedures before removing or installing the controller.
• Avoid static discharge, moisture exposure, incorrect polarity, and short circuits when handling or installing electronic components.
• This listing is for one Homelite 997000068 Drive Controller only unless otherwise specified. Drive motors, wiring harnesses, mounting hardware, switches, relays, batteries, chargers, and other electrical components are sold separately.
• Match part number 997000068 with your equipment's illustrated parts diagram or OEM documentation before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
