hi, im fairly new to the golfcart world with my first golfcart. im working on my cart for my daugter, ive got it set up on 36vlt (3 12vlt batterys). the cart runs with out the throttle sensor pluged into the main brain,it will spin the wheel takeng off lol but it scares my daughter. i cant tell any dif if i plug in the throttle sensor and i ohmed out the sensor and it seems tobe good. If its the brain is it repairable? i seen several for sale on the net that say repaired? thanks for any ideas as this is my new advnture

Might check to see if the linkage (from the accelerator pedal and inside the box) are actuating all the way open and closed. Sometimes the frame can get bent and can thru off the linkage movemant. Might also bench test the solenoid to see if it is frozen in the "on" position. Yes a G8 controller is rebuildable if needed.
