Default Alltrax 500A controller...cant get 100% throttle

I just installed a new Alltrax 500iq and had to do some testing with it to get it from bucking like a bronco. It seems to start off pretty good now, but i cant seem to get above around 88% throttle running the software. With the stock controller, i was getting around 28-30mph on gps. Now im topping out around 26mph. Any ideas?

You didn't say what year your cart is but I'm betting you have the MCOR throttle.

Go back into the program and select MCOR throttle device.

Hey Scotty, thanks for your help. I dont have an option in the program for MCOR. There are eight throttle sensor types listed. I have Club Car 5K-0 selected. (I have an 08 Precedent)

how much deadband do you have before the software starts to show throttle movement?

On the Control Panel page have you ticked the switch box marked Turbo. This gives extra speed once 100% is reached, provided you are not over current.

Yes i do have that checked...but the problem is that I cant get to 100% throttle. Pedal to the floor only registers as around 88% on the controller. Is there a way of adjusting the pedal/MCOR?

put you ohm meter across the mcor output and see if its giving full output first then you can pin down the problem.

Im sure someone asked this already but do you have a 2008 Precedent IQ, or a 2008 Precedent i2? On the IQ, the stock controller would have been black. On the i2, the stock controller would have been gray.
