Default Solenoid question

After reading some posts I was trying to test solenoid with no success. So I jumped and cart then turned over so I went to an auto store and got a 12 volt solenoid cleaned up all the ground wires I could find and replaced solenoid, but when i hit the gas nothing. from what I can tell all micro switches are good. Any ideas? Thanks

Default Re: Solenoid question

mostly just an FYI ...

A golf cart solenoid is activated all the time the engine is running.
An automotive solenoid is activated when the starter is running.
You can use a GC solenoid in a car but you can't use a car solenoid in a cart for very long. It will work for a while but it will get used up pretty fast.

I'd look through here for the wiring diagram.Then make sure everything is wired up right and clean your connections.

Thanks seen post about a Continuous solenoid. That is not what I purchased going back this morning to get the correct one. Let's hope this works been about 7 days tinkering with the cart.
