Default intermitten accelleration

I have an issue with a 2002 DS club car REgen. when everything is cool the first ride of the day (20-30min)the cart acts normal. You start out for a second ride the cart starts to accelerate then stops you let off the pedal and press again it starts to go again for a very short distance were you have to let off the pedal and step on it again and again it will go a short distance. you can keep this up letting off and pressing to make it go but you soon give up. Have check connections all look good. Any help would would be appreciated.

It's dead..... Your bad batteries can't withstand a load for more than 20-30 minutes.

Thanks for your reply. I do not believe it is the batteries they test out 48+ volts and are all most brand new. The power is there when you step on the pedal but just for 3 seconds and it is like the contactor releases and then you let off and press again it goes.

at 48 Volts they are essentially dead http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/elect...-readings.html

Get a digital volt meter,
place cart on charger and leave it there until charger cuts Off

wait 4-8 hours , measure each battery and across entire pack then
post results here

I appreciate your replies about the batteries. The thing is the cart will continue all day even up hills if you release and step on the pedal again, it is like some turns of a switch when you depress the pedal. Before the issue the cart was used a lot to walk the dog which gave the on off of speed pedal a lot of work.
the cart is stock

May not be all the batteries. Maybe 1 or 2. Charge it up man, check the pack, repost.

i,m not gonna dispute it may not be the batteries it just may be something else but as with all elec carts always start with the basics to make certain, i would at least charge the batts and than take voltage readings and than load test them.......at least you have them out of the way cause they are funny things they will make a cart act that way.......................
