Ohhhhhh...... arching at the wiper board! The speed control? YEs there are many contacts there. You can file them flat to improve the contact surfaces or replace the wiper contact and speed studs...Replacement is best for a 20 yr old cart. The parts are available from any of our sponsors.

If you haven't touched anything and it just all of a sudden started look for bad connections or broken resistor coils.

You will probly have to reuse "some" of your parts.

Severe arcing is caused from bad cables or connections, mis-wired cables, shorts or broken resistor coils.

Good luck!
