A tool with three pins arranged in a row that three pinholes arranged in a row such as those found on a motor controller could easily connect to and disconnect from, that, when connected to a motor controller, identifies which of the three wires is positively charged, and whether the voltage difference is above 9 volts. Should one of the outer two wires be positively charged, and consequently not the middle one, or should the voltage difference be greater than 9 volts, then the motor controller would be faultily wired, consequently breaking any receiver that the motor controller connects to.
