My setup:

Re: 02 txt solinoid only clicks, nothing else
Get your voltmeter and check that the solenoid is operational, not just clicking
Then do the controller out put test; Check the power output from the controller by connecting the negative probe to the controller's M- terminal and positive to the B+ terminal. Press the accelerator and watch to see if the voltage increases. It should increase from a reading of 0 to the full voltage of the battery. If the motor is not turning, the problem may be in the directional switch or motor. The controller is bad and must be replaced if there is no voltage. I probably should mention controller test is done with at least one rear wheel jacked off the floor and key on, directional selector in forward. ~ test leads on B+ and M- should read 0v then push the gas and watch the voltage rise to full pack voltage? |

Re: 02 txt solinoid only clicks, nothing else
Check to see pack voltage is coming out the Controller side on the big terminal everytime it clicks. And shutting off. So one click on, click off. click on, click off.
Like that. It is just a big switch interrupting the positive battery main from the battery pack to the controller |

Re: 02 txt solinoid only clicks, nothing else
Battery pack is 49.9
The first test I did was: Place the (+) probe to the controller side of the solenoid's large post. The reading should be 0.1 to 3 volts less than battery voltage. If the reading is more than 3 volts less the battery voltage, the resistor is faulty. If the voltage is the same as the battery voltage, replace the solenoid." I got a reading of 14.69volts. Does this mean the resistor is faulty? |

Re: 02 txt solinoid only clicks, nothing else
next:
"Check the power output from the controller by connecting the negative probe to the controller's M- terminal and positive to the B+ terminal. Press the accelerator and watch to see if the voltage increases. It should increase from a reading of 0 to the full voltage of the battery." I got a very odd reading here. started at 0 and once press pedal it goes to .000049 i think thats the right number of zeros. Any help please PS: Happy memorial day. God bless our military and their families. |

Anyone? Please help.
Should I just replace the resistor and see what happens. |
