help with a 1999 ez go txt series cart
I'm new to having a golf cart. I purchased a 1999 ez go cart. I knew it needed a new battery, and controller. So I bought new crown batteries and an alltrax NPX 4834 controller. I also replaced all of the battery wires since the others were a little corroded. After I installed everything, I turned on the key and pressed the pedal and get nothing. The LED on the controller is not lighting up either. Any ideas what to check next? The solenoid? key switch? I'm just a little lost on all of it. Thanks in advance!! Oh, and love the forum!

Have you looked at the sticky and the flow chart diagnostic?

Re: help with a 1999 ez go txt series cart
Welcome to BGW.
I'm a newbie also and have a PDS cart, so I can't help you much with a series cart, but check out the Sticky:s. There is a ton of good info there, including some wiring diagrams. Hopefully, the first thing you did was charge the batteries. If not, do so before going any further. While they are charging, check, double-recheck and triple-check your wiring. Lots of expensive things go boom and release a lot of smoke if they are wired wrong. Unless I'm mistaken, you don't know if anything was working when you got it, so the throttle, F/R switch and Motor are all unknowns. The batteries are new and are most likely good if they were fully charged. The controller is new, but might not be good if it was miss-wired and power was applied. Be patient, break out the Digital Multimeter and be sure everything is doing what it is supposed to do and connected correctly before you turn on the key and push the throttle again. Yeah, the flow chart will stipulate the key being on and the throttle depressed, but don't blindly poke and hope. BTW: There is a break-In procedure to get the full potential out of new batteries. Also, they may be called "Deep Discharge" batteries but the less you discharge them between recharges, the longer they last. (Excluding Break-In period) Check water level at least monthly - Only add water to fully charged batteries - Only use distilled water. Good Luck. John |
