36 volt series cart

Boeingman_747 · 06-08-2016, 10:07 AM

I have a ezgo 36 volt series TXT cart (non DCS), no numbers on cart to help I.D. what year/model. F/R switch under knee position. Cart stopped working last Fall and thought the controller was toasted. Upgraded to a Alltrax NPX 300 amp controller, no help. decided to upgrade motor (Plumb Quick Bandit), wiring (6 Ga), solenoid to heavy duty parts while redoing everything. Only thing not replaced yet is the F/R switch. Got everything installed and cart violently jerks in forward and reverse both when pedal is pressed down. Any help or ideas would be appreciated?

Each NPX control has a throttle type printed on the case. It sounds to me like you got the 0-5k throttle signal control installed in an ITS system. Unfortunately the NPX control is non programmable so you will have to replace it if in fact what I suspect is so. Good news I have a couple of NPX400ITS controls which are new old stock for sale CHEAP if needed.

I will take a look at the controller tonight when I get home and post a pic of the unit I have installed. ITS is the pedal control system in the floor correct with the plunger and donut sensor to read pedal position?

The plot thickens! After talking more with Robby Steen and sending him a picture of the motor they sent me to figure out if it was a thin or thick can, he tells me they sent the wrong motor. The y sent me a Sepex motor!

Well that probably would cause some performance issues!!!
