99 txt 36 dcs
I have a 1999 DCS TXT. It came to me going fine down a flat road but will not go up any kind of incline. I have replaced the motor, the controller - with a stock 9 pin and when that did not work an aftermarket upgrade controller, the ITS, and the F/R limit switches. Still no change. I have gone thru the EZGO DCS troubleshooting guide and did all my voltage reads. That all checked out to spec. What am I missing? Thanks.

Re: 99 txt 36 dcs
Seems a bit late with all of the $ you've spent on upgrades, but what is the condition of your batteries? Do you have a reading 12 hrs after charge? And, have you had a meter on them while going up a good grade?
You should probably post what motor and controller you added as well. |

Give us a battery voltage reading under load like full pedal up hill when it is going slow.

Re: 99 txt 36 dcs
new batteries Crown CR-205 - I took out the upgrade controller I got from FSIP 51-FX503G023K 500 amp w/adapter harness and put the stock back in. The motor was a stock rebuild from my local dealer. I have not measured the voltage going up hill yet. I will post when I do. Thanks.

Re: 99 txt 36 dcs
you might look at individual battery voltages under load as well....recently i have seen a few post about the same symptoms where a new battery was breaking down under load...they were warrantied by the manufacturer...

Re: 99 txt 36 dcs
22's - 4ga - nothing abnormally warm except some of the 18ga wires going to the 9 pin controller are REALLY warm. I noticed that yesterday. I'm suspecting a short somewhere in that main harness. I will tear into that this week-end.
