2002 club car ds iq problem - controller?
My Club Car DS IQ was surging then just stopping, sometimes surging backward while switch was in forward position. I found a thread about jumping the two wires on the MCOR to test it, and now the solenoid is no longer energizing.
I used this troubleshooting guide http://www.fsip.biz/Documents/Club%2...leshooting.pdf and everything checked out until page 16, where it reads to make sure the blue white wire on solenoid is pulled low. I checked continuity to battery pack negative and there was no continuity. To make sure that I was on the right track, I disconnected the blu/wht wire from solenoid, and ran a jumper wire to that point from battery pack negative. When I turned on key switch, solenoid energized, and when I pressed the pedal the wheels started to spin as normal. Could my symptoms have been that the controller was starting to fail and then did fail? I didn't see any more instructions to check the MCOR or even see the MCOR in the schematics in the troubleshooting guide. Thanks |

if you got the cart running, then the controller isn't bad. I don't think cart will run without the controller working.

My daughters had just got the cart 'hung up' or 'bottomed out' and had to push it off of a dirt pile, when the symptoms started. They told me it might be something underneath the cart that was damaged. |

Re: 2002 club car ds iq problem - controller?
In an IQ cart the controller does the high amperage switching for F&R. The signal to switch comes from the rocker switch below the seat... Question might be is the rocker switch sending goofy signal or is the controller bonkers.

ok, Thanks Scottyb, I followed the troubleshooting guide, and it is looking like it might be the controller, but I will run through all that again this weekend.

Re: 2002 club car ds iq problem - controller?
It may need to be scanned with a handheld to be sure. You may have a "MAIN DRIVER OFF" Fault in the controller, which means it is incapable of controlling the solenoid. The solenoid driver fails and causes this fault. Usually from a bad coil suppression diode on the solenoid. This would explain the cart running when you jumped the solenoid manually. Sounds like a good time to.upgrade.

Where can I find this troubleshooting guide? I have a 2004 DS that click on the press, has new Trojans, and a new motor (from troubleshooting) and it beeps when you push it.
