Help - Blown Fuse

SFA2000 · 04-18-2010, 08:30 PM

I have a 1992 Electric Yamaha G9. It died and all I can figure is each time I push my pedal it blows the 10 amp fuse next to the solenoid. My questions...What is the fuse for? Has any one had this problem? Is it a symptom for something like a bad solenoid? I am asking the question because where I live there are few golf cart repairmen and I don't mind fixing if I only know what the problem is. Thanks for your help.

It sounds like you have a wire grounding out.You need to check wires for a bare spot somewhere.

It could be blown diodes. There are 2 of them. You'll find them close to the fuse. Check with a continuity tester, if they have continuity they are out. Good luck!

I had checked for any exposed or loose wires but didn't find any. I did find one diode that looked like it was burned up and the other diode looked heavily corroded and it broke apart in my hand when I was messing with it. I am going to try to order two new ones and replace them. Thank you for your help and I will let you know if that fixes the problem

If you can check the continuity of those diodes, and it has continuity in them, that means it's bad, and it will definitely blow the fuse.
