98 36volt car need guidance.
I was given a cart in non running order. So far I got the old batteries to charge how well is to be determined, turn the key on tried to move the cart either direction nothing but reverse alarm I have 36.6 volts from the pack. I checked voltage on the line side of main selinoid had voltage, nothing on the load side it has control voltage and ground. I am assuming that the part is bad ordered a new one. Is there any way to jump around to do further testing or should I wait for the new part. Is there any other test to do to check other the function of the controller ect. Thank you I do have wiring diagram I am just new to electric carts.

Re: 98 36volt car need guidance.
Find the serial number, or determine the model of cart (post a pic). We will help. What is current pack voltage?

Re: 98 36volt car need guidance.
1998 g16e The current pack voltage 36.7. I know I will be replacing batteries. But just want to make sure everything is working or have a way to test componets before I spend the money on the new batteries and this cart is not a basket case. Would be safe to jump the main relay with the rear of the cart up in the air.

Re: 98 36volt car need guidance.
Check the yellow wire. It should be 36v or nothing, other readings point toward bad controller. You can try to jump 36v to it, but USE A 10a FUSE, a bad controller will often have problems on that circuit (failed inside controller). Bad F&r is also common on that model. Dont waste money on a new oem f&r, upgrade (scottyb, or use a hd ezgo one, i wrote a thread on that upgrade).

Re: 98 36volt car need guidance.
I installed the new seliniod last night I have a functioning cart again thanks for the help. Next step is to see how long a charge last. I will replace the batteries in the spring if I have to. I for see some new paint and other body mods over the winter thanks again.
