97 electric club car

viperwolfgang

Hello,

I am having trouble with my 97 48volt club car.
I am being told that it is a gen 2 model.
I have installed new crown battery's, new 4 gage wires, about a month ago.
the darn thing just stopped on me about a week ago while I was driving it.
the car charges just fine but it just wont move.
I have also noticed that the solenoid clicks hard when you turn the key on then I have a lighter click shortly afterwards.
I have check for both loose wires & broken wires.
I have checked with a meter and I am getting 50+ volts on both sides of the solenoid with out the pedal depressed.
any sugestings would be very helpful as to I am @ a loss hear.

The solenoid sounds like it is stuck .... should not have continuity all the time ....

Well I have since replaced the selnoid & the f/r switch.
still have the same problem...as soon as key is turned on the selnoid clicks....no click when peddle is pushed and no-go.
I also had the motor checked and they told me it was just fine.

Sounds like either a bad microswitch in your potentiometer switch or a bad controller. On this model It's either a PotBox mounted below the seat or a V-Glide under the seat on the I-Beam... could be either one on this model. Check that microswitch first... If it's good you're gonna need a controller.
