Re: 1999 non dcs ezgo motor
Probably a bad one by now.
A DCS or PDS sepex motors and their aftermarket replacements, will mount to the differential, but the field windings are only designed to pass about 10% of the armature current, so when they are feed by a series motor setup, they overheat, burning the insulation off the wires they are made of and the windings short together. Which in turn, could overheat the C &D terminals/cables on a series types F.R switch. Does the motor have a label with manufacturer name and model number? We might be able to identify it with that info. |

Re: 1999 non dcs ezgo motor
The S1/S2 studs appear to be smaller than the A1/A2 studs. If so, it is a sepex motor.
Can you post a picture shot from the shaft end showing the field windings? The difference between Series and Sepex motors can be seen at the top of the attached guide. |

Attached is what a sepex motor looks like I must have been mistaken about it having different sized studs. Hard to tell by looking at an angle in a picture. I'd check out the motor very thoroughly before putting it in a cart. Overheating the studs/cables on a F/R switch could mean it has some shorts in it and a motor with shorts will take out a controller. Last edited by JohnnieB; 11-06-2014 at 01:47 PM..
