Welded mains on solenoid,...?? maybe

toledo20 · 12-14-2015, 01:07 PM

Ok I'll check that.
I put it back to 36v. Samething.

If the solenoid welded itself at the increased voltage ,48v, did you expect it to unweld itself when you changed it back to 36v

I think that may be the problem.
I have conunity through the 2 main connections with batts. Disconnected.

Glad you found your problem,now you can buy a quality heavy duty solenoid that will take 48v if that's what you want to do with your cart now or eventually,good luck with it.

Buy your Solenoid here

Thanks guys.
