Need help identifying an EZ-go (marathon?) cart and finding wiring diagrams
Hi all,
Forgive my ignorance--I'm new at this but am looking for some help. I recently acquired an EZ-go electric golf cart. Unfortunately it's a rusted-out hulk, so fixing it up is going to be quite the job. The first step is to identify the thing, but I'm having a bit of trouble. I found a serial number (489874) and a Manufacturers number (H0988) under the passenger side glovebox (about where the passenger's left knee would be). If I'm reading other sources correctly, this means that the cart is a 1988 Marathon, but I am by no means sure. Most of the more pictorial Marathon wiring diagrams I've found (eg here) show what looks like a vertically oriented F/R switch, whereas mine seems to be horizontal. Again I'm pretty new to golf carts so I may be way off base here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Bonus points for links to appropriate wiring diagrams, though once I figure out what I have that should get much easier to do for myself. |

Re: Need help identifying an EZ-go (marathon?) cart and finding wiring diagrams
Thanks for the reply. You're probably right but it still seems odd based on what I see inside. I'll post some pictures today or tomorrow morning (it's raining like heck right now so I can't run out just yet).
Thanks again. |

Thanks!
In the meantime, does anyone happen to have any "under the hood" pictures of an '88 marathon on hand? I could at least compare in the meantime if this downpour doesn't stop. |

Great--the rain stopped! Here are some pics:

Yes on both. '88 body and something else for FNR selector, controller, potentiometer, solenoid....etc. I don't think you will find a schematic here for that setup. Looks like a previous owner got really creative on the electrical setup.

Unfortunately the wiring diagrams aren't always truthful. I have an 87 and went crazy finding the right one. Best bet, take a pic and post it.

Re: Need help identifying an EZ-go (marathon?) cart and finding wiring diagrams
BuggyTraz, use this + OEM parts and she'll be good as new. Well, except for that slot in the seat wrap/kick panel.
phnguyk, ur 87 is a different animal. Lots of different ways to skin the resistor coil setup. Good luck. |
