Default 01 Ezgo won't run solenoid clicks

Hello
I have a 01 Ezgo cart and the other day it quit running. I replaced the solenoid and all it wants to do when pushing the accelerator is barely lunge forward a couple inches at most and the solenoid clicks is all. Sometimes the solenoid will click multiple times. I have checked the batteries and am getting 36 volts. What could it be? I've seen it could be the f/r switch the micro switch controller and a range of other things. All cables have been checked to ensure proper tightness and that they are in good working order. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Also, if it's the controller is there anyway to rebuild it yourself instead of buying another one?

Hello & Welcome to BGW - series or PDS cart?


"Also, if it's the controller is there anyway to rebuild it yourself instead of buying another one?" If you have to ask the answer is no. Don't feel picked on I couldn't do it myself.

How do you check to see if it is a series or PDS?

From all that I can tell I have a PDS, on the controller it has a dark blue wire that basically loops around and on the cover that goes over the controller/solenoid has a bunch of codes on it for things to try if it messes up.

Okay - PDS cart solenoid clicks + cart won't run.
Assuming stock control. Put the run tow switch to the tow position. Remove the controller cover. Smell the controller. Does it have a burnt electrical smell?

No, but I have smelled a rotten egg smell every once in a while.

Check the F&R switch, see if there is a build up of corrosion on the 3 wire terminals.
Check to see if you are getting power into center terminal.
Check to see if power out on each end terminal terminal in their respective F&R switch position.
