Re: Question about my 96 ds
Joesam,
Thank you, that's the basics I was looking for. This cart will primary be used on paved or gravel roads at campgrounds. No real thoughts of making it a "puddle jumper", or any kind of lift or bigger tires. Running it around at home, I fairly happy with the speed. I have no need to get from a to b fast, just getting there and back is all that matters. If I wouldn't have gotten such a good deal on it, I probably would have done more research and know what to look for and bought accordingly. But I was looking for something close yo home to buy quick. I was looking mostly so my dad had something to move around the campgrounds if or when he goes with me. I ended up buying this cart, knowing it needed batteries, for $250.00, with spare wheels and tires, rear view mirror, radio system, and charger. I paid $690 for a new set of Trojan batteries, and just recently picked up a flip rear seat for $295. So all in, I'm sitting with a cart that fills my needs, for just under $1250. The biggest downside is I'm now addicted. I'm already looking for another cart to do the big lift, wheels, tires, and big power. Lol |

Re: Question about my 96 ds
After some closer inspection, I found there are three smaller wires coming out of the end bell of the motor.
So my question becomes do you all think this is still a regen 1 system. I do not have a run tow switch anywhere. |

Re: Question about my 96 ds
Probably still its a yes. Regen 1 has 3 wires coming out the end of the motor and NO run/tow switch. Its the only Regen cart ever made without a run/tow. It uses a circuit in the controller to de-activate the Regen system on a short (sub 10 sec typically) time-out circuit. You can unplug those wires to deactivate Regen for fast downhill runs - with no harm to the system. You may also notice (as I have) that Regen 1 is a tiny bit speedier than later models - usually 14-15 mph vs about 12-13 mph. If its like mine, your motor will read 3.2HP. See below.

Re: Question about my 96 ds
That's one of my biggest problems, there are no tags on the motor.
Joe, does your controller look like the gen 2 controller? |

Re: Question about my 96 ds
Nope - its original (but a refurb one - I had to return the "core" of my failed one to get the rebuilt one). Its Tee Shaped and Black.
