Updated to 4 ga. cable -QUESTION-
On my '98 EZ-GO TXT/ Non DCS/PDS I've upgraded to 4 ga. cable and was told I needed to "REMOVE DIODE BETWEEN SMALL TERMINALS ON SOLENOID".
Is this correct? I'm a little gun shy when it comes to electricity and I can't find anything in archives that sheds any light on this. Any of ya'll made this upgrade on this type system and removed this diode? Any help and/or advise greatly appreciated. Don't worry about insulting my intellegence or lack there of. I'M NOT ONLY PHYSICALLY CHALLENGED BUT ELECTRICALLY CHALLENGED AS WELL!! Thanks again, Larry |

Larry,
If ALL you did was upgrade the cables leave the diode installed. There is no electrical reason to remove it because you increased the wire size. Where's my check? |

Senor, yo no habla engles e no tengo dinero.
It has a Curtis 400 amp controller and a AU 2500 high speed motor. Does that make a difference? Muchas gracias Lallo |

Who told you to remove it? Did they state the reason why? Hastalaveesta! (7 years of French class down the drain!) |

Re: Updated to 4 ga. cable -QUESTION-
Gornoman, I bought some cables from that OTHER site for a 98' EZ-GO TXT (Non DCS/PDS). These were cables specified by them for my cart and the instructions/diagram said to "remove diode bewteen the two small posts". I wasn't sure about wheather or not I should SO, I called them and was told by a rep "yes, you're supposed to remove diode from small posts". It sounded like he was simply reading the same instructions/diagram that I and rather than giving an explanation as to why I should, he just said I should.
I was still leary and gun shy so that's when I started researching archives and asking around. Thanks again gornoman you've been a big help Seems to me that you have tangible proof to back your suggestion so, I'll heed your advise. Larry |
