Cushman help

[scottyb]

Nick have you gone to vintage golf carts and looked thru all of these diagrams to see it one matches your cart / more or less....http://www.vintagegolfcartparts.com/...ategory=100012

Nope, I already tried those. The one I got from cushman is totally different than those. Thanks for the help.

What do you need help with? Can you post the one you got?

Nick, What you might try is making a copy and trace the line with a pencil and we can fill in the reast with SWAG (scientific wilda** guess). There are enough folks with experience that we should be able to either fix it or create a spectacular fireworks show. Randy

Have you called them back and requested they re-send the fax because the quality was low? Have you tried cleaning it up with any software like photoshop, paintshop pro, etc.? If you need, have them fax it to me (pm me for fax #. I have efax) and maybe it will come through a little better. It will be in an email format at my end, rather than having to print out on yet another fax machine... I can then forward it on to you, or post it so others can review it as well. Worth a shot maybe.

Thanks for the response everyone. Here is an attachment of the scanned fax I got. I will try to get a hold of them again and refax a better copy. Mostly the help I am looking for is locating a repair/parts manual something with troubleshooting information in it.

You're right, fax is a bit fuzzy but, the two big solenoids are definitely the F/R contactors. Determine which is reverse and the other one should be forward ( how's that for logic??). The problem seems to be that FWD may need replacement/repair. Before you start taking it apart make sure to take pictures, make notes, mark wires and bypass the beer until after. See if the solenoid clicks when you put it in FWD, if not trace the wire to the switch and make sure all of that is working. What I'm saying here is eliminate what is working and what is left should be the part not working. If you ever get a cleaner copy of the wiring diagram please send it. My tired old eyes are not focusing well anymore. More to come. Randy

" mark wires and bypass the beer until after" Thats for sure! Too many beers and a fuzzy wiring diagram make for an interesting evening. I have a wedding today but I am going to be working on it these weekend. I will forward the results. Thanks again for all the help and interest.

A wedding??!! Isn't that a bit drastic to avoid working on your cart?? Have fun and avoid the garter.

[poorol'nick]

I should have avoided the garter 5 years ago....I would have had more money and time....
