Ez-Go 400 and 400 Electromatic wiring diagrams
 
5 Attachment(s)
I am going to do the best I can to post these to help someone else in the future that may want to fix 1 of these carts.
A LOT of changes took place in the wiring and setup of these carts over the short time they were built. The first were 5 speed carts and the later 1's were 4 speed.
There is a chance 1 or 2 of these postings are the same diagram.If so moderators are welcome to do as they see fit to fix the situation.
I got these from books bought off ebay a few weeks ago.

I have 3 owners manuals for the 400 . 2 for the 400 B and 1 for the 400 H,although it is missing a page or 2 and the diagram is gone from it.

I thought I would post this in case it was of interest.

Looks like I'll have to break out the Crayolas and trace some current paths to figure out how these things work. :mrgreen:

You and me both! That is why I have been hunting a road map for this thing!:lol:

The key is figuring out which contacts are closed on the accelerator switch.
What is it, a multi-bank rotary switch?
Or what was known as an encoder back in that era? (PC board with different length traces laid out in a circle and a movable wiper arm with multiple brushes.
Pictures of it would be nice. :mrgreen:

Looks like F and R are incorporated into the keyswitch.

Looks like two 18V battery packs that are connected in series for charging.

Ironically, I've worked on similar circuits before, but not in golf carts.

Yea, I will scan a page sometime soon that explains the speeds. i think I typed it up on the 400 thread i have how this thing worked. it is 2 motors in 1.

I think the key switch for direction is nice.
There is a column of micro switches that are activated when the pedal is pushed. I think there may be a photo on that 400 thread as well.EDIT, yes,post 50 has a photo of the switch box for the accelerator.
If not I will get 1 posted soon..

Took a look at post#50. The mechanics of the switch makes sense now.
It is a cam switch and I've seen them before. :thumbup:

Hi, I have a mid 80's western ez-go that has what they call overdrive, and the wires were removed when I purchased it. Is there any possibility you would have a wiring diagram for this feature?
