Re: 2002 Club Car DS just stopped after installing 2 gauge wires
Ok. The charger cut off over night. Didn't have time to check voltage this morning before work. I did unplug the charger and tried to see if it would move. It would not. No click, no nothing. Where do I need to go from here?

Re: 2002 Club Car DS just stopped after installing 2 gauge wires
To troubleshoot the Solenoid Activation Circuit on a 2002 DS Series cart:
The yellow wire on the solenoid small post goes to the OBC and provides the negative for the Solenoid. The White/Black wire on the solenoid small post goes to the FNR micro switch, Pedal switch, key switch and provides the positive for the Solenoid. Lift one wheel off the ground, turn the key on, put FNR in Forward and press the pedal. Set meter to 200vDC scale. Measure the voltage across the solenoid small posts: Yellow (meter negative probe) and Black/White (meter positive probe) wires. If You get +48v and the solenoid does not click, replace the solenoid.If You don't get +48v, find out which side is missing: Measure the voltage between the pack negative battery post (meter negative probe) and the Black/White wire (meter positive probe) at the solenoid small post. |

Thanks Sergio, I will do that this afternoon when I get home and post results.

Re: 2002 Club Car DS just stopped after installing 2 gauge wires
Ok. According to Sergio ' s diagnostic procedure, either the micro switch in the FNR is the problem or the accelerator pedal. I know where the FNR micros are. Is the accelerator switch in the box on the frame rail?

Re: 2002 Club Car DS just stopped after installing 2 gauge wires
Or are you saying one of the micros is the pedal switch?

Re: 2002 Club Car DS just stopped after installing 2 gauge wires
Yes there is a micro switch inside the Vglide, the pie shaped box referred to as a Multi-Step potentiometer.
Power comes in from the key switch on the Blue wire and the switch completes the connection to the Green/White wire that goes to the FNR micro switch. The FNR micro switch completes the signal from the Green/White wire to the White/Black wire that goes to the Solenoid to provide the positive activation side of the circuit. Check the FNR micro switch first since it is the easier one to access. |
Re: 2002 Club Car DS just stopped after installing 2 gauge wires
Ok. I'll check that.

Re: 2002 Club Car DS just stopped after installing 2 gauge wires
This is a dumb question, but where do you put the negative probe when checking the FNR micro for voltage? If I grounded it correctly I am not reading any voltage at the FNR switch. It got dark on me, so I will have to investigate more tomorrow.

Hey CC gets sneaky sometimes and puts negative to those little circuits so try it with the 'other' lead on + and - at the F&R and then if you find juice there going through the switch move to the V glide and repast the process per Sergio's instruction.

Re: 2002 Club Car DS just stopped after installing 2 gauge wires
I added the model and year to the top of the first post to make sure other folks knew the specific model this applied to, because as scottyb mentioned, there are quite a few differences in some model years.
I think I will start adding this to every set of instructions:
Disconnect the Green/White at the FNR micro switch and measure the voltage on the wire If You get +48v on the Green/White wire with Key ON and Pedal pressed: That micro switch is either bad or the FNR cam is not pressing the lever on the switch. If You do not get +48v on the Green/White wire: Check the Blue wire on the Multi-Step potentiometer, You should get +48v when the Key switch is ON. |
