Need help with motor
I have what I believe to be a txt pds and I think I ordered the wrong motor. The speed sensor from the original motor is round with a small clip wire connection. The new motor has a larger three prong connection. Is there a way to make the new motor.work with the existing components?20150903_024558.jpg

Re: Need help with motor
Cut the black circular object (speed sensor) off the PDS speed sensor cable and the Deutsch DT04-3P connector off the new motor.
Connect Red wire to Red wire, Black wire to Black wire and Green wire to White wire. Before doing any cutting, what is Make/Model of new motor? Need to be sure it is compatible with a PDS controller or aftermarket controller for a PDS. |

this is along the same lines as the original post. I sold my motor and like a dummy did not remove the speed sensor and wire. At the time I had no idea the sensor would break free from the motor. Do you know if I can just find a universal connector and run wires to the new motor (after cutting off the Deutsch connector). Or do I need to buy a new speed sensor with wires and cut the sensor off? |

Re: Need help with motor
You need the original harness to plug into the controller. The guy who bought your old motor may have an extra one

Re: Need help with motor
Thanks Scotty I was afraid of that. Was hoping I could buy just the harness, but looks like I have to buy the whole assembly, and cut off the sensor. I'll check with the guy I sold it to first.

Instead of buying a new speed sensor assembly, you might find a used one, or a bad one, by posting a WTB type thread in the parts forum:http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/golf-carts-parts/ ------- I cut the PDS speed sensor cable to remover it from the cart when I installed a DCX controller. Fortunately, I saved the plug with a few inches of wires attached, so I was able to patch together a kluge when I installed an XCT. |

Re: Need help with motor
Every one with a DCX installed in their PDS cart has or had an unused Speed sensor harness.

Re: Need help with motor
You can buy molex connectors from many electronics distributors. You just need to locate the right one. They are cheap! (Digikey would be where I would look first)
