v-glide electric club car quit suddenly

estevens1978 · 07-14-2017, 09:12 PM

HELP!
Electric 36volt 1992 Club Car DS with Vglide and resistors.
It was running fine.....then stopped all of the sudden. If I short out the two big posts on the solenoid it sometimes sparks and moves forward......other times no spark, no nothing.
Also, I pulled the wires of the reverse buzzer....did that affect anything?

When you push the go pedal, do you hear a click from the solenoid?

reverse buzzer has nothing to do with cart movement
no click and cart moves when solenoid is jumped
check
key switch
f/r micro switch
v-glide micro switch
solenoid

here is wiring diagram

I do not hear a click form the solenoid when I push the go pedal.

Checked:
key switch = good
f/r micro switch = good
v-glide micro switch = good
solenoid = ?????
When I turn key switch on I have 36 volts at the two "smaller" posts on the solenoid and I have 36 volts at the "larger" post with the white wire going to the F/R switch......when I push down on the go pedal I do not get any voltage on the "larger" post going to the wiper assembly/speed switch.

solenoid test

Quote:

Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery. remove all wires, restorer , and diode from solenoid
test 1
Connect an volt meter, set on continuity, place on the two large terminal studs. The meter should indicate no continuity, Replace the solenoid if continuity is present.
test 2
Using jumper wires attach from main positive and main negative of battery pack to the two small solenoid studs, polarity is not important. You should hear a click as the solenoid engages, and the meter should indicate continuity on the two large terminals. Replace the solenoid if continuity is not present.
if solenoid clicks rapidly solenoid is bad

Solenoid must be bad......no continuity across the two "smaller" primary posts.

replace it with a 36v Solenoid
