Runs with the key switch off
Well I am 99% done and I just noticed that my cart will run with and without the key. Thoughts??

Re: Runs with the key switch off
Throw away the key! Lol! Gas or electric cart? Did you do some work on it and this is something new?

Re: Runs with the key switch off
I converted it from 36 to 48. And yes. This is a new issue. I swear this thing is possessed!!!

Re: Runs with the key switch off
Did you rewire the cart? You are sure all wires hooked up the same?

Re: Runs with the key switch off
Yes. The wires are the same as before I upgraded.
I wonder if the key switch wires are reversed ... or if that even matters. |

Re: Runs with the key switch off
Maybe the switch is bad,and not disconnecting?Unhook the batteries,Test across the terminals with an Ohm-meter(Voltage and Ohm-tests don't get along well,you will fry the meter).If it has continuity in both on and off,then the switch is bad.Hope this helps.

Re: Runs with the key switch off
I am going with Pachanga on this one .... even though I have not had a chance to preform the suggest test, I was thinking ...
When I hooked my battery meter up, it had constant power to it. (Red wire to battery + ; Black to Battery Neg and Yellow to key switch). I had it hooked up absolutely correct... I am sure of it. I am thinking my key Switch is bad. ..... Thoughts ?? |

Re: Runs with the key switch off
Switches are pretty common to replace. Fairly inexpensive, I wouldn't hesitate.
