If you have a EZGO DCS or PDS cart, there ought to be four green blinks at power up.

Give Alltrax a call.

Hello I am back and installed a new Altrax controller and two mud shark rear tires. My cart runs now but only 5 mph? I checked my batteries and they all were bubbling away. 41 volts also checked S. G and they all were good. So I will change back to stock tires and see what happens. Have a Bandit motor and it went 25 mph before. What am I missing? ''Down in Baja''

Does your cart have a motor speed sensor? The controller may be looking for that signal & getting nothing.

I had an Altrak controller before that went bad after 6 years, so got new and improved one It's a PDS cart and nothing else has changed? thanks

The new XCT can monitor motor rpm. The old DCX could not.
If the cart is PDS your cart may no longer have the speed sensor cable.
If PDS you have 2 options.
1. get a speed sensor cable and connect the controller to the motor so it can perform all of it's functions. This is the preferred solution.
2. change the program so the controller does not look for motor rpm by un-checking the limit speed box.

I put 2 mud sharks on back 21x12 10 inch. I think that is part of my problem. Connected speed sensor but I am going to put the stock tires back no to see the difference. thanks

So it does have a speed sensor? GO here and positively identify the drive system as PDS or DCS please. https://www.cartsunlimited.net/upgrade-suggestions.html

thanks everyone.......hooked up the speed sensor ..it was still zip tied to the bandit and took off the Mud Shark tires in the back........ and put the stock ones back on..........IT GOES LIKE I REMEMBER...............Looked good with the Mud Sharks and alumiun rims, though.
