98 Club Car problem

scgbeamecock

I have a 98 Club Car that has a wiring issue...i think.
It has a 36 volt solenoid that will not engage.
I hear the microswitch "click" when the pedal is pressed, but the solenoid
will not engage.
I can jump across the solenoid and the car will move like it should, but not without the jumper.
There are 7 wires going to the solenoid (including the two on the large post).
On the two smaller post there's a white and red wire on one, and two reds and a yellow on the other. Is this right?
During the troubleshooting process I'm starting to doubt if I put the wires back in the right place.
Can anyone help...my family is DYING to ride!!!!
Thanks

BGW

Welcome to BGW


Check to see if your getting power TO the micro, if so check to see if your getting power FROM the micro.

Basically, power to the micro.....micro switches, you get power out.....power out to one of the small terminals on the solenoid....solenoid should engage. The other small will be a ground. Make sure your ground is good too. Thats just a basic explantion, it may differ slightly.

where is the micro located?

Depends on which system you have. Most common will be inside the V-glide. The v-glide is the throttle box. It will be on the left frame rail...kinda sorta.
