48 cc power problem
i have a 96 cc 48 volt royal ride that i inherited for the second time. found the inline fuse on the yellow ground wire from the solenoid no good and replaced. the solenoid also had a crack, so i replaced with a hd 48 volt unit. i replaced the diode and the resistor at the same time. Charged, load tested, and ran battery pack. all good for the fourth of july thank goodness. now it runs intermitent. i get 51.2 volts from ground to the white/black stripe wire on the solenoid when i engage key and push accelerator. and at times hear the solenoid click. i was told that if i put a jumper wire from the ground to the yellow side of the solenoid, and it works that it is the obc. which i have already reset. any other suggestions???

Re: 48 cc power problem
does it automatically activate the solenoid when you use the jumper wire? If not, leave the OBC alone and just install the jumper wire on a permanent basis.

Re: 48 cc power problem
it does not activate the solenoid with the jumper wire unless i put in gear and depress pedal. forward and reverse work as they should. if i use with the jumper wire and dont replace the obc, will that affect other aspects of the cart that the obc controls such as charging. i dont want to burn up the unit, but im tired of the obc.

Re: 48 cc power problem
Shoot a PM to TahoeDog on this as he has far more experience than I do, but I can say I have done this modification on MANY Club Car's and never seen a negative result from doing it......
