ID fried wire

golfdude · 10-14-2012, 03:11 PM

i have found a wire that is fried that looks like a jumper wire with a resistor of some sort? it connects to the same thing (sorry do not know what it is) as the red cable from the 1st battery behind driver seat. Cart is a 2004 Precedent.

505.jpgThanks, I figured it out. It is the resistor wire for the solenoid, it has spade connectors. I can't find the same one on any of the sponser sites. It is 48 volt club car precedent. Any help with locating one

That is the resistor for the solenoid, they are cheap. It goes on the two large posts of the solenoid and is used to protet the controller. Its called a pre charge resistor. There is a smaller one on the small posts that is called a diode. Get the right resistor bases on you amp rating.

Get one at evdrives

Get the right one base on amp and voltage rating

While you're at it, get a replacement solenoid, too.

I see you have posted several times recently about your cart being stored, and now that you've taken it out of storage, it won't move.

The "cart won't move" plus "what is this burned thingy?" equals dead solenoid. Most likely, anyways. There are a few troubleshooting suggestions, if you'd care to try... (alternatively, throw parts at the cart. List of parts to throw at cart to be provided shortly)

What's likely happening is your solenoid isn't closing properly, and your resistor is trying to pass the current to run the cart. And obviously, it doesn't work. So the solenoid heats up, and looks like yours. If you simply replace your resistor, the new one will melt too....

Thanks for all the help. I will heed your advice.

Wait! You didn't wait for the list of parts to throw at the cart, just in case!

Delagam,

show me the list you are suggesting. I will wait !!!!!!!!!!
