3s A123 cells is only ~11v. People have run 15v and higher with no issues so I doubt the voltage is too high. Maybe your pack has a bad solder joint? And the batts don't "push" power (well, actually they do, but not in the way you are thinking), they deliver whatever the load they are connected to requires. Does anything heat up (batts/ESC/motor)?

And what do you mean about pulling the black wire? What black wire? The only wire you should remove is the red wire in the throttle cable to disable the BEC...
