New to forum have problem with my cc

[lightnglights4]

We just got this cc its a 88 but no glider on it it has the box that connects from the gas pedal it has 5 selonoid and the coils its ok when its in N but if you go to F or R it starts to move even with the key off or presing the gas. we also noticed that the battery would spark I did check all the batteries and they are properly connected.

You probably have more than one problem.....!st Welcome to BGW Forum....Hope you brought your sense of humor! LOts of good people here who can help you fix that ole cart easy
Before anything find that spark and check that connection if all the cable connections are clean and tight there will be no spark....That spark is cabable of melting the post off of the battery so, you want to make sure all of your connections are clean and tight...

Check for the obvious....is your gas peddle coming all of the way back up? Can you pull it back up some more? Follow the accelerator rod. See the tin box it goes into? There is a master and 4 other micro-switches in there to control the speed selector solenoids......

the batteries are all correct and tight except for one red cable we had to disconnect since it jumped forwrd while we was putting in new batt. there are two red cables that come from the the F and R swith do both of those cables go on the same POS Post on the battery

THese 2 cables you are asking about....do they both connect at the bottom of the F&R? If so, the one on the passenger side goes to batterypack positive and the one on the driver side is shorter and originally went to the pos on the third battery from the neg connection to the charger recepticle ...thus connecting the Reverse power to 1/2 voltage ( 18v ). Hope that makes sense....some members have connected these 2 terminals together at the F&R (against the manufacturer's saftey recommendations!) to produce full power to reverse so if you get stuck in the mud ....... you're not on 18v trying to back out!

Have you downloaded the wiring diagrams for your cart from the stickies at the top of this section yet? Got a voltmeter Yet?

try 1 problem at a time..........if the cart runs as soon as you put the key in youi either hasve a bad micro switch or a stuck solenoid...........both easy repairs.......as for the sparking find exactly where its coming from and clean and tighten that connection to see if it takes care of that problem..................................

[lightnglights4]

we did everything it looks like the solonoid is bad i took the bus bar off the solonoids and then put the cart in gear and nothing so i have to figure out wich one is bad now where do i find the wiring diag. at again.

[scottyb]

The one farthest on the drivers side is the master.....if it don't work none of them go. You can jump them for a 'test'. Remember each one has it's own microswitch in the little tin box!

We had it working good now but we put it down from the jack stands and now it wont move at all i hear and feel the master solenoid cliking laud but nothing no forward or reverse
