1994 G9 grinding noise and no f/r
Cart has been running great since I added new batteries. Kids were on it tonight riding around camp with no issues. Went to load in back of truck and as soon as I got it up the ramp and in the bed it would not move and was making a grinding sound. Had to push it final 2ft into bed.
Motor coupling? Input shaft? Wheel hubs? Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk |

Wonder if they oversped the motor? Or the batteries are dead enough they won't keep the solenoid on?

Re: 1994 G9 grinding noise and no f/r
We were monitoring them pretty close. Had them slow down a couple times but nothing that should have put a strain on the cart. Batteries were at 80% when I loaded. Cart came up ramp fine, when back tires were on tailgate I braked, then tried to ease it forward to finish loading. Then grinding noise started and wouldn't move. Just purchased cart last week so I don't have any history on it.

I guess it's hard to say without hearing it or a description like, does it sound like when you need brakes on your car or, dragging your trash cans to the curb or, a blender, etc

Sounds like gears grinding. Motor spins so solenoid is working. I'll put it up on jacks tomorrow and check the hubs.

Looks like a spun hub on the drivers side. The castle nut spins when power is applied.

Good it's not the gear case. Hopefully you just need a hub and not an axle shaft

Re: 1994 G9 grinding noise and no f/r
Picked up a used ezgo hub locally to get me through the family reunion this weekend. Axle shaft still looked good. Going to order a couple of the heavy duty hubs from carts unlimited next week.
Thanks for the help. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk |
