36 to 48
Ok seen many threads on this i have a 82 resistor cart my thinking is to move the control wires off the forward reverse switch move them to the 36 volt pack then add two 6 volt batteries to the bag well with battery box to hold them wire it from 36 umder seat to the added battery to make just the motor side gets the 48 volt but the control side is still 36 so i dont cook the solenoid coils i will rewire the charger plug to 48 and get a 48 volt charger

Re: 36 to 48
no ... it will not work as you need ether 36v or 48v
the idea is nice but the power has to be through the entire system the resistor coils and other parts will burn out with 48v |

Re: 36 to 48
That dont make any sense explain to me why it wouldnt people use 36 volt motors on 48 volt systems.The resistors are to slow current probably make more heat.I seam many posts running 48 tru the whole system but thats too much on the control side of solenoid.The solenoid on big terminals dont care if its 12 or 48 volts only the small coil terminals need to be 36 volts

Re: 36 to 48
no matter where you hook into the 36v system you will make it a 48v system
yes motor will take the 48v and other parts may hold out for a while but will burn out the control of 36v would not include the f/r switch if you wire only the key >limit switches >and solenoids to just the 36v pack you can run cart on 48v take the #6 battery neg cable and add the other batteries to it but put a wire (-) to key from the #6 battery it might work for awhile |

Re: 36 to 48
The 14 wire moved from forward reverse swich to number one battery the number five wire would go to the added batteries in bag well in series and a new wire from added battery would go to f/r switch the 14 wire will be 36 the new number 5 would be 48 the key and f/r limit is running the ground side only

Re: 36 to 48
Doesnt make sense to me wiring the batterys like thst would make the reverse 30 volts the way i said would leave reverse 18 volts like it was made adding the extra 12 to forward only

Re: 36 to 48
remember dc current runs negative to positive
this leaves 18v reverse Last edited by crash test dummy; 10-18-2016 at 09:37 PM.. Reason: add info |
