Re: Solenoid Clicks and Controller Flashes 7 times then solid green but no go. 2000 C

Test Procedure - Multi-step Potentiometer (from the 1998-99 Service Manual) 1. Disconnect the battery cables (negative cable first) and then disconnect the six-pin connector at multistep potentiometer. Remove switch cover by pressing down on locking tabs. 2. With multimeter set for 20K ohms, connect black (-) lead of multimeter to purple wire terminal end (located in six-pin connector on potentiometer). Connect red (+) probe to yellow wire terminal end. 3. Depress the accelerator pedal until wiper switch movable contact is on third stationary contact. Multimeter should register approximately 565 ohms. 4. Measure resistance while depressing the accelerator pedal. The measured resistance should increase incrementally in six steps: 1st Step: 910 ohms (approx.) 2nd Step: 1660 ohms (approx.) 3rd Step: 2570 ohms (approx.) 4th Step: 3570 ohms (approx.) 5th Step: 4570 ohms (approx.) 6th Step: 5570 ohms (approx.) 5. If the resistance steps were not correct and the accelerator pedal is properly adjusted, then replace multi-step potentiometer. Please let me know what you guys think. Thanks again! |

Re: Solenoid Clicks and Controller Flashes 7 times then solid green but no go. 2000 C
In review - I read the first post and this last post. The cart runs in post #1 if you supply 36v (-) to the solenoid activation circuit. The OBC has failed. Run with the Bypass (-) wire on the Solenoid or replace the OBC, or remove the OBC and get a smart charger.
Cart wont go to full throttle or is jumpy. Reading indicate poor performance. Replace throttle signal sending device. (it's 15 years old- seems inconsistent in use) Possibly replace it with a true 0-5k potentiometer. Modification or conversion kit required. |

That Club Car should have a 5k-0 throttle to matches the controller, need to check the wiring on the throttle, sounds like + and - reversed. On second thoughts by measuring between PURPLE and yellow you are measuring resistance relative to negative not relative to positive so it will read 0-5K but the controller is seeing voltage relative to positive 5K-0.

I'm with CCFanatic - you're V-glide provides a 0-5k output. The Alltrax is currently set up for 5k-0. Reprogram controller for 0-5k to fix problem.

Read post #21 - straight from the service manual. Ever seen the inside of a V-glide/multi-step potentiometer? Basically resistors stepped up the back of the contacts to add resistance as the throttle is pressed, hence 0-5k.

The controller can be programmed for either 2 wire 0-5k or 3 wire 5k-0 |
