Drive solenoid
Just replaced the motor and controller. Worked good for a few hours then started to lose complete power off and on. Finally stopped moving for good.
Solenoid does not click. Havent put a guage on yet but would this be the place to start looking? If it is, where can I get an upgraded one? |

Re: Drive solenoid
It's a yamaha drive. I tested the solenoid and there is no power at the two small wires when pedal is pressed. Read a few different things saying it is the solenoid and might not be. It does not click. Where should I check now?

Re: Drive solenoid
Pack voltage is 52.2. I figured out there is no voltage on the ground side of the solenoid. I jumped it from the negative batteries and solenoid clicks. While jumped, the positive that runs to controller reads 51.1. Seems like solenoid is working. Controller?

Re: Drive solenoid
It is an 08. I found a small wire that had a bad connection ad got the cart running for about two hours. Then power died completely again. The controller is brand new from FSIP

Re: Drive solenoid
