Speed Control is backwards

kflowe · 08-24-2009, 01:01 PM

I'm trying to get my EZGO TXT, that we just recently converted to 48 volts, running. The problem we are having is that the speed control is backwards. When you push down on the pedal, you have full power, and it decreases as you push further down. When we swap the wires on the controller, nothing changes. Any ideas?

My guess is you have a controller configured for a Club Car installed in an EZ-Go. We need all the specifics on your cart AND the conversion....

......Hopefully you have an Alltrax Programable controller

If so the problem is easily resolved. If not you may well have the wrong controller / speed indicator combo

as Gman said

So post up all your particulars; cart year, controller make model input configuration etc. so we can get you sorted out and on your way ....

Sorry, guys. Thanks for the quick responses. This seems to be a very helpful site so far.
Here is my cart and its components:

1999 EZ-GO TXT
48 volt conversion (6 8V batteries)
Heavy Duty White-Rodgers Solenoid
Logisystems, 700 amp, Non-programmable controller (from D and D motors)
Heavy duty F&R assembly
4 gage wires

more info is needed to troubleshoot this... hey! we are on the internet and my crystal ball is out of batteries today...

perhaps some pictures? Diagrams used for installing?
Did you call D&D regarding this? What type of throttle input the controller has? Stock motor?

First thing I'd do is call D & D before something happens to void your warranty

Mikes right

Logisystem makes that controller for 2 different types of throttle inputs. One is 5k-0..... the other is 0-5K..... I bet this is getting self explanitory?
