96 club car 48v problems

Thunder50

This is my first posting but I have been looking at prior posts but havent found my problem The cart runs good but every now and then the solenoid seems to drop out or disconnect It has a new solenoid and all the switches have been changed inc ign and f/r new speed sensor If it quits i turn the ign switch off and on again and the solenoid clicks in (double click ) and all is fine again Everytime I get out my meter it runs fine and cannot find any problems
Perplexing Thanks in advance for any help I am not around all the time so it may take me a day or two to answer

I know you have checked and double checked all wiring ,
Is this a controller cart with 1 Solinoid ?

I think the 96 was a single solenoid cart.... I might suspect a faulty ignition or micro switch... carry your meter with you, when the stopage occurs check the 2 small terminals on the solenoid one of them should be positive and the other negative to activate it... the key activates the F&R micro and it activates the micro in the V-glide on this circuit, ...............

Thanks for quick response it is a single solenoid cart I will try that with the meter
Thanks Also does anyone know if the frame is supposed to be grounded as this one does not seem to be

Electric carts DO NOT HAVE FRAME GROUND unless something is WRONG. Digital meters will show a small amout to frame but its just from moisture etc.
Try moving your F& R switch back and forth some to see if that solves problem when cart shuts down without touching anything else. It could be one of your MICRO switches on F&R switch hanging up. If that doesnt help then you can check further. My 1996 had same problem until I changed micro.
Worse case being that you have a loose connection which can be a pain to find?
