Possible bad solenoid please help
Hello all,
I recently upgraded my motor to a D&D 4:1 controller to a 650 amp programmable ITS alltrax all wiring to 4 gauge heavy duty F&R switch now the cart doesnt move.....unfortunately I think that I may have fried the solenoid. The reverse beeper still works...but sounds different/wierd I get no lel activity from the controller when I turn the switch, (If i bypass the switch the controller lights up green) I get no sound from the solenoid in forward or reverse. Myconfusion is that if I had fried my solenoid would I have known? |

Re: Possible bad solenoid please help
Did you purchase a heavy duty solenoid for that litte monster of a controller?
You used one of the wiring diagrams from Alltrax ? |

Yes I used a heavy duty 400 amp solenoid....I used the wiring diagram from D&D and later compared it to the one from alltrax when I found out they were the manafacturer.
The diagram matched up well |

Re: Possible bad solenoid please help
Sounds like you are having trouble with the solenoid activation and controller power circuits..... can you post the diagrams you are looking at?

Based on the ITS nature of the cart I am assuming a Medalist or a TXT |

2005 txt cart with series motor
When i stated bypassing the switch I was refering to feeding the controller power directly from the battery pack and ignition, bypassing the F&R and solenoid both. |

Re: Possible bad solenoid please help
ok you need to follow power from the start to the finish on the control side.
Hook your black probe to the B- on the controller then follow the power wiring (start at the solenoid and work backwards) Voltage to the red small post of the solenoid? |
