Re: [EVDL] Zap Xebra 72v charger.
If the charger you have is mostly blue with a couple of fans under the belly, it may be the BC2 Intelligent Charger. The AC interlock lead is used to prevent operation when the charger is connected to house power. There is a Yahoo group for the Xebra and a file in the file section:
http://f1.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/oBalSQnYtzLBOV_icmK6TkuYavVba4KueOV0nRN4J4hYdQEHie 3SwTg4_pxyCO59o4IJN2r2pSPKRsvMF6znYyNoLJ8bYSLuyA/bc2consumermanual.pdf
which is the manual for the BC2 charger. It may be necessary to join the group to have access to the files. If you do not care to join and want the document, contact me directly and I'll be happy to pass it along.

Can you post a link to a picture? Some (all?) of the Xebras use a Delta-Q charger, and if that is what you have I can help.
Cheers,
