2001 EZGO Gas-Engine Runs/Won't Go in Gear
I just picked up a 2001 EZGO Gas Cart. E201. It seems a little sluggish going up hill, but I picked it up anyways.
I drove it around all evening and drove it into the garage. The next morning the cart would not engage into either reverse or forward. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. It's most likely going to my mechanic, but wanted to see if there was anything I could try. Mike |
Re: 2001 EZGO Gas-Engine Runs/Won't Go in Gear
open the seat and watch the shift linkage at the rear end, Are the cables actually moving the shaft going into the rear end???
Are the cables moving? Try rocking the cart back and forth as you try to shift into gear. Is the plastic shifter handle spinning on the medal part of the shifter? |

I can see movement of the cables and bracket near rear end when moving the handle on. the front of seat from F to R.
I pull the tires off and the axle did not spin when I hit the gas. The axle did seem to spin appropriately when I spun the hubs. |

I think I can hear the solenoid clicking too.

Re: 2001 EZGO Gas-Engine Runs/Won't Go in Gear
Not going into gear and solenoid clicking would be 2 different issues.
I would take the cables off the rear end (one bolt) and see if you can shift it in and out of gear with a wrench at the rear end. |
Re: 2001 EZGO Gas-Engine Runs/Won't Go in Gear
What are the possibilities if I can or cannot engage it manually?
|
Re: 2001 EZGO Gas-Engine Runs/Won't Go in Gear
If it will engage at the rear end then its just an adjustment with cables most likely.
Diagnosing a mechanical issue is a process of elimination, If it shifts properly at the rear end manually then you know the issue is forward of that! If not the is back of that point. |
Re: 2001 EZGO Gas-Engine Runs/Won't Go in Gear
A clicking solenoid could just be a connection issue and just needs cleaning the connections. Could need a solenoid, either way its a easy cheep fix.

Wait. So it won’t start? Or won’t shift?
|
Re: 2001 EZGO Gas-Engine Runs/Won't Go in Gear
Won't shift into any gear. Engine seems to be running well. I just dropped it off to buddy who is a mechanic. I will post and update as to what we find.
