Still No Reverse
I recently had to replace the F/R switch on my ‘97 CC DS Series cart. A blunder on my part caused me to wire it incorrectly and the folks here were kind enough to help me figure that part out. Everything has been wired correctly now, and checked, double checked , and triple checked multiple times. However, the cart still will not go in reverse.
For S & Gs I decided to check my controller. While in forward I hooked up a dvm from negative battery pack to M- on the controller. I had pack voltage with the accelerator up and going to 0 when fully depressed. But when I put the cart in reverse I show no voltage with the accelerator in either position. Right now I am totally at a loss as to what I have done wrong or where to look for what is wrong. |

Re: Still No Reverse

Re: Still No Reverse
Swap the Blue and the Orange at S1 & S2 and see if you have reverse when you select Fwd and and still get nothing when you select Rev.

Re: Still No Reverse
Was it an aftermarket F/R switch? were all the Micros all replaced too?

Re: Still No Reverse
When I swap blue and orange I have reverse. Voltage from pack to controller starts at pack voltage and gradually lowers as the accelerator is pushed.

Re: Still No Reverse
Then you have proven the motor is good and it is the contacts in the switch - either they are not making up the micro-switch when you select reverse or you have bad contacts in the FNR. Check the micro-switches on the back of the switch and see if they are being made up when you select reverse.
