Default Testing a motor

I was just told that the cart that was given to us hardly ran even when it had new batteries. Is there any way to test the motor before I buy batteries? What are my options if the motor is bad besides spending the $450 for a new one.

Well that is right let me try again

This worked for me! Be very careful! I would also suggest just using a 12 v battery rather that the whole pack, same test less dangerous!

Thanks for the link I will try it when I get home tomorrow. What if the motor appears to be good but the card still has low power? Cables, solenoid?

Ok well the continuity and power test checked out. The motor spins!!! The connections at the motor were loose and its 6 gauge wire so I will get all of that fixed and order the batteries, hope it runs....
