Default Adjusting CC DS Accelerator

I've been having some trouble with my motor opening up to full throttle I just installed a new mcor, but I have to push the accelerator over 4 inches to get the mcor to "click" and engage. How do I properly set this? Thank you for the help

this is a good question. the MCOR is supposed to manage throttle/accelerator interaction as it is all electric. perhaps the MCOR slipped out of position when you installed it? otherwise I'd look a the foot pedal assembly and see if something has worn out....

Are You sure what You are hearing is the MCOR micro-switch and not the Solenoid?

Put the cart in neutral when you test it to make sure it is not the Solenoid.

With the cart in Neutral the only "click" sound will be from the MCOR as the Solenoid will not activate.

Yep. I'm definitely hearing the MCOR and then later what I assume is the Solenoid? The Solenoid is a louder click

So You push the pedal over 4" before the MCOR clicks and how much further before the Solenoid clicks?

Thanks to you all. I found the problems I was having were the result of wear on the accelerator linkage arm. I used some 1/4" ID braided tubing around the forward most fork of the MCOR arm. Immediately I got my torque and acceleration back. Total cost: $0.39

My only question... how do I know if I'm now "opening" the throttle at 100%? Is there an easy test that doesn't involve a scanner or similar on the controller?

For the record, Dave Hicks (TahoeDawg) from Revolution was really helpful. I ended up ordering all the new replacement parts for my accelerator - all parts new cost about $40.
