Ezgo Troubles Full Charge and No Go!!!

rose88

Ok I have done some research and I have a 2000 PDS Body but I think its a DCS cart maybe someone put the body on? Anyway it has the shifter handle and not the rocker switch. Problem is full charge and no go. Cleaned all cables, Have batt voltage across pack, have batt voltage at batt side of solenoid, Only have 0.001 at controller side of solenoid? Could this be a resistor diode bad? Solenoid does not click when key is on and in gear. When I hook the B- up to batt pack it makes a little buzzing clicking sound like something is pulling volts? No sparks or anything just a light scratchy sound. Anyway you know I like Gas carts, however I am getting better at electric. LOL

Have you tryed to jump the reed switch from the charger plug on the cart,

Well I removed the cover and checked the continuity and it was good. I had another cart do this years ago and it was a reed switch. If I have continuity shouldn't that mean its good?

rose88

Bump? If I get continuity thru the Reed Switch is there a chance it is still bad? I have a jumper wire made up and I am guessing I need to attatch it to 36+

Thanks

It sounds more like a bad resistor/diode board to me but I am not an expert on DCS carts by any means.....

That's pretty much what I have determined after hours of research. I am going to take off the resistor from solenois and try it that way. Also going to check my micros as well.

thanks.

Ok heres some more info, I had 36volts on both sides of solenoid?? never had it before and jumped the solenoid and got the wheels to turn backwards no matter where the gear selector is? Key off and it still turns backwards. Ok no here is what happened as a result of me trying things. Now the motor is stuck in gear had to pull the cable off to get it to stop. I really could use some help at this point. LOL

I have the exact same problem

Also forgot to mention that when you have the tow run switch in the tow mode for at least a minute, when you flip it to run the wheels try to turn very little you can feel the cart when this is done. I am thinking more toward the motor now, as this is a new solenoid doing the same as the old?

Well my problem is identical to yours. My motor is brand new from plum quick.
