hi i am helping a friend fix up a 36 volt 5 solenoids cart, at first we had rear end issues but that fixed installed a 6 in lift,and a new f & r, all new cables,and wires, he installed 2 8volt batteries in the place of 2 6volt,now in forward the car runs fine,but when you put it in reverse the f & r sparks like crazy,i can unhook #1 battery and #6 battery,unhook the ign. switch wires,put the car in reverse and touch the #6 battery and it starts to spark,the #1 battery is still not hook up, just by touching the #6 batt. it sparks in reverse but not in forward any help on this would be appreciated i would like to find a motor wiring diagram it has a1,a2,f1,f2 ,and also would like to find a f & r wiring diagram for same car,thanks ahead for any help on this

It's a 36v cart right? why are you using 8v batteries?

fbryant1

he only replaced 2 of the 6volts and put 2 8volts in there place

Fishing Dude

Bad idea!

Hillbilly Deluxe

Yeah. Not sure what that would do, but I'm guessing not a good idea since the solenoids etc are made to handle 36v.

A mixed pack of 6s and 8s will not charge correctly. Also you are over volting the system. Like failures are the solenoids and F&R. Here are some diagrams to help you get it going. good luck
