73 D par cart reverse issues
I have a 73 D that I have replaced all wiring, starter generator, and most recently the forward reverse switch and cables. but one major problem still exists, the cart runs well in forward, but as soon as I switch to reverse and press the accelorator, the black wire from the generator to the voltage regulator heats up and melts, the cart never moves in reverse. any ideas?

Re: 73 D par cart reverse issues
You have a wire crossed somewhere or the wrong type of regulator. Do you have an electrical diagram for your cart?

Re: 73 D par cart reverse issues
So it tries to run in reverse but the wire burns out? Once the wire burns out does it then run? Have you confirmed that when the wire is replaced that it is charging when running in forward?

Re: 73 D par cart reverse issues
Have you check your ground wires for good contact? Main ground strap, and the solenoid ground too?

Re: 73 D par cart reverse issues
The body to engine ground is basically just for the coil. The starter/gen is not grounded to the engine. It has to 'float' because of the reversing option. It gets grounded when needed to the correct terminal by the F/R switch.

Re: 73 D par cart reverse issues
all wiring and grounding looks good per diagram, replaced F/R switch, starter generator and voltage regulator, no longer fries black wire, but only "clicks" once when shifted reverse and accelerator is applied, will not move
