Accelerator pedal problem
I am not familiar with newer club cars and was hoping for some advice/help. Recently a friend bought a 2013 club car that has been lifted and customized. It is 48v and I assume it has stock controller. Any way she asked me to drive it and try it out. I immediately realized that it had a great deal of play in the pedal. It seems not to engage or move at least until pedal is ¾ the way down. Then seems to be all or nothing in range of power. Cart is strong and nice but I don't think this is right. I have a 97 ezgo txt 36v that I have up graded with altrex spm 400Amp controller, heavy duty f/r, all new cables #4, low profile tires with 10in rims, etc. Anyway I have smooth acceleration and power. Solenoid engages and cart pulls on slightest push of pedal. Basically she paid a lot of money for cart and I didn't want to hurt her feelings or worry her with out reason. My question is, it's this normal and right? Should it have so much dead area in pedal? Can I adjust this? Thanks any help would be great.

Re: Accelerator pedal problem
She could have an MCOR problem which would exhibit these type of symptoms.

Re: Accelerator pedal problem
Sounds like a MCOR problem to me.

Re: Accelerator pedal problem
If I'm correct hers is ds model. Has the old body style? Does this make a difference?

Re: Accelerator pedal problem
Maybe the rod is not rotating completely with play in the pedal or its stripped. Or simply mcor. Test resistance of mcor.

Re: Accelerator pedal problem
Plug a scan tool in it and check the accelerator

Re: Accelerator pedal problem
The older DS models had some accelerator pedal wear underneath where the pedal meets the shaft going to the MCOR. The fix was to cut a short piece of small fuel hose and install it over the end of the shaft that touched the accelerator pedal. The shaft wore a groove in the pedal and this fixed it. YOu might check that out.
