Runs good then crawl after a stop

[emanuel.cayetano]

EZGO
Model TXTPDS

Starts up just fine but when i stop it suddenly goes into crawl speed. I switch the ignition on and off really quick and it goes back to normal. Also shifting from forward to off then back to forward works.

I removed the strobe light i just installed and the problem goes away completely. Tried wiring directly to the battery, ignition switch, and forward/reverse switch and i get the same problem.

The strobe light is a 12-72VDC MeteorLite how do i test this?
With the strobe light on i connected to the capacitor on the strobe light board i read 20v no idea what this means tho haha. Dont want to buy a 200 dollar strobe light without knowing for sure its bad.

Thanks

The strobe light may be putting some sort of noise on the battery that is confusing the controller. It sounds like the controller is going into some failsafe mode. If removing the strobe makes it go away, that Is my guess as to what the problem is. You may be able to add a filter. I would talk to the maker of the Strobe.

Checked the manufacturer website for MeteorLite with no luck : (

Some strobes put nasty stuff back on the power bus. Unfortunately, there are very few regulations on this kind of thing.

You might try adding a filter capacitor in the .5 - 1 farad range (also listed as 500K micro farad, or larger if the price is right) inline with the strobe of the type sold for car audio surge use, typically starting at $15 or so on ebay with screw terminals, and mounting brackets. Alterntiavely you can probably find a smaller capacitor that would work for less, but it may not have screw terminals and mounting brackets. Always handle capactors with care as they can hold a significant electrical charge for some time.
