Txt pds problems-
I bought a cart with the pds controller. I knew it did not work when purchased, but thought i was smarter then the guy that tried to fix it before. I guess I’m not,,,,,i need help.
With key on or off, there is 39v at solenoid on batt side, with 38.5 on controller side, and on controller at A1 and motor at A1, but cart is stationary. The solenoid makes no noise when pedal is pressed. Scared me when i got voltage at motor always but no movement of cart. This is without touching go pedal. Also curious about the white jumper wire on controller? It is in a 5 wire plug. |

Re: Txt pds problems-
The motor always has the positive voltage. The controller regulates how much negative based on the throttle position through the M- cable. You need to figure out why your solenoid isn't clicking.

Re: Txt pds problems-
What does the solenoid do when it clicks if the voltage is going straight thru it all the time?

Re: Txt pds problems-
Ok. Learning already. I will try to figure out why solenoid does not click. Will a bad controller stop the solenoid?
Is the go pedal the thing that sends a signal to solenoid to work? |

Re: Txt pds problems-
Making progress. I figured out the last guy wired a new ignition switch incorrectly. After fixing that, the solenoid clicked very weakly, but would have to turn ign switch off, then back on to make it click when pressing pedal. It ran in reverse for a few seconds, but would not repeat.
I did the test above recommended by mgray70 and it showed pack voltage, so i have a solenoid on the way. I’ll be back. |

Re: Txt pds problems-
If the reverse buzzer works then you could try to put it in diagnostic mode to listen for codes. Key on. N to R 5 times ending in N. It will beep 1-4 times to tell you what chip is in it. After that push the pedal and listen for codes.

Re: Txt pds problems-
Well, not as clearcut as i hoped. I installed new solenoid. No clicking. Now voltage on batt side is 39.1 and on controller side it is 17v. The resister is hot! Where do i buy a new resister?

Re: Txt pds problems-
If the resistor is hot the solenoid isn’t closing when told to. You can remove it for testing. If you put your leads on the small yellow and blue wires on the solenoid that should go to pack voltage when the pedal is pushed.
