1979 Club Car only has one speed---FAST again....

rondeecombs1lizzy105

Well, we've come full circle. We put 5 new solonoids, 2 new batteries, a new f/r switch and a new micro switch. We thought it was fixed, it ran ok for a half hour, then it went back into FAST speed again. When it first did it, you could take it out of gear and tap the first solonoid and it would quit for a minute. But now, if you put it into gear, it takes off. Don't even have to touch the pedal. It got so hot, he had to unhook the battery to make it stop. I swear this cart is trying to kill us!

Any suggestions?

yes try swapping a few soleniods from place to place and very carefully go over everything you did........................very carefully.....................

Will do. Is it possible to have gotten some bad solonoids? We figured buying new ones, we would be ok.

shadowman

getting bad soleniods happens more than you would think thats why i suggest swapping some around .......all won,t be bad or shouldtn,t be anyways................................

I usually scrap about 1 in 30 solenoids as bad straight from the distributer

You probably have some sticking micro switches in the box that has the 5 micro switches in it. Any time I work on one of those electrical systems, I usually have to overhaul that box. All the parts are still available.
