Default EZGO Security

What is the cheapest easiest way to make sure nobody takes off with your EZGO at the beach? All keys are made the same.

Hide another flip switch under the seat, or install a second non EZ-GO key switch either under the seat, or in the drivers side of the storage compartment.

Install a clearly marked on off switch next to the key switch... file the switch plate tooth off so the 'on/off' plate rotates around 180º. Now you have a convenient on/off switch that work opposite of what it is marked. That's gonna stop 99% of the people.

Or spend the $ for a unique key switch.

I am a computer nerd, not savvy with all of these fixes. Anyone have a video or a link to what you guys are referring to?

go to google and type in EZGO unique key switch...see what you get

also you can put a switch in line with the charger safety line
on my cart that is the third wire that runs from the charging socket
there is a spade lug at each end, just unplug the connection there
and the cart won't run, most crooks will move over to the next cart

Find an old 3.5" floppy drive. Cut just the front "pretty" part off. Glue it just under your key. Print out a colorful piece of paper that says "Insert starting operating disc here prior to start function". Laminate that paper and tape in under the key switch.

Dave, the scary part is some of these folks may not know what a floppy is ...

USC, you could just get a 6 ft security cable through the axle and a wheel.. Kind of a pain but it wont move..

5" floppy (do with that as you will) You should see my hard drive... Unplug and take the plug with green & red wires from the bottom of the cupholder area. Unless they brought one of those with them too, they arent going anywhere. Cost- $0. But Only works with RXV (your cart model was not specified).

I haven't done this, but if I ever do I would just put a switch somewhere out of sight on the cart. Probably under the cup holders that way I don't have to raise the seat all the time.
