Short somewhere on early Club Car

BigBRoehn · 07-24-2009, 06:56 PM

Calling all guru's. I had the old cart running and was trying to test a bas solenoid. A wrench drop onto the psoi post and it sparked like hell. Now I get nothing when I press the pedal.
Do these carts have a fuse box of any type?
Any ideas what I can check.
The cart is an early model CC, with the 5 speed solenoid set up and coils.

Nope, no fuses on that model. Probably why she sparked so much .

Any ideas on what to check? Possibly a broken wire? Could it maybe in the F/R switch?

Check the wires where you drop in a wrench & shorted it out. Where do they go ? Check them for continuity with your voltmeter? There is no mystery. You melted a wire or a micro switch? You just gotta find it . We don't have a silver bullet for every shorted circuit

What is a micro switch and where would it be located?

Go to the top of this section and locate a 5 solenoid wiring diagram ....... download and print it ..... you will notice on the diagram there are 5 micros for the 5 solenoids? Maybe more on the F&R I would have to look at the diagram or cart?
