94 medalist electric problem

crunchfish

I hope some one can help me...I just purchased a 94 medalist with new batteries and it wont move...I checked voltage at key switch and f and r switch, both sides of solinoid and I have 36 volts all around...I pulled motor out and gave to local dealer to bench check and they said it was fine.. I reinstalled and kept checking.... I have the wrong manual but alot of the stuff is still the same....The little studs on solinoid has 36 volts on one side only but manual said it should have on both but not sure...Either way It doesnt make any noise...but voltage on both large terminals...anyone have any ideas.. thanks

Does the reverse buzzer still work?

crunchfish

it was disconnected..The ground wire to the micro switch was taped off..I jumped it and when in reverse the alarm stayed constant on..Really loud ,,,i then broke the connection of ground to turn it off..

does the solenoid ckick when you hit gas pedal? if not jack the rear up get wheels off ground if you don,t have a run tow switch get a peice of 6 gage cable turn key on and put cart in gear and jump the large post on solenoid you might get some sparkage so be ready and don,t crap in your shorts.........slowley press pedal down if wheels start spinning than replace solenoid, diode and resistor and drive it away...............if you F&R lever is by your legs also make sure that the double wide micro switch with the metal arm coming off of it didn,t bend or roll over thats a common problem............another thing if your getting just 36 volts thats a dead set of batteriesyou should be more in the area of 39 volts or better.........your sure cables are all on right and battery terminals are clean and tight? pull tug and twist to make sure..........i don,t know if the 94 has a run tow switch but if it does it is in the run position right? we spent days trying to help a fellow whos cart wouldn,t do anything and here he forgot to put it bacik in run position ..........never overlook the little things...........................

thanks for the response, both sides of solenoid have full voltage and I checked that micro switch it seemed to be working...I did a ohms test on it and it opened and closed as I moved the lever..On solenoid small terminal with red wire gets voltage when i step on gas pedal so I believe speed controller is good to..Solenoid does not click at all but when switch is turned on voltage is there...No run switch on this model,,,im still trying to find manual with troubleshoot in it,,,,ive found previous and newer models my luck but will keep trying...thanks again
