Re: 2018 rxv
Probably not the solenoid but probably the controller.

Re: 2018 rxv
Yes. The controller is still seeing power. But I would first check the solenoid circuit for a fuse or a blown switch. You did not say what you actually did to cause the spark. Reverse polarity can kill stuff.

Re: 2018 rxv
I have been looking for a way to test controller. Also how to test solenoid. Thanks for your replies.

Re: 2018 rxv
I tested to voltage at the solenoid. Big posts were 48.5. Small posts 1. The interesting thing is the battery pack voltage is 50.2.

Re: 2018 rxv
As you probably know, the big posts (one of them) should be same as battery pack.

Re: 2018 rxv
Here's the test procedure for the solenoid acc to the Troubleshooting Guide. Unfortunately you can't really test your controller...

Re: 2018 rxv
Try to explain the wrong connection you made when it sparked and maybe we can help you diagnose the possible failure. I don't have an RXV but most carts have battery positive going right to the solenoid. So if you don't read full voltage between solenoid post and battery negative, there is a break in the connection.
