2006 precedent got wet?

[jckrall]

Considering buying a electric precedent that the owner says he was driving it and went though like a foot to foot and a half of water and it stopped suddenly. I own two gas club cars but dont know much about the electrics. Any guesses what it could be and what kind of repair costs we are talking. I would do all the work myself just curious what kind of costs i could be looking at. Any ideas guesses or knowledge welcome. thanks

Could be as simple as a bad or corroded connection.
MCOR could have flooded: $100
Might have popped controller: $500
Failed solenoid: $75
Bad wiring harness: $125
Any or all of the above
Not likely motor or rear end were harmed, they' sealed pretty well.

thanks thats kind of what i was wondering. If i guy can run a multi meter can you troubleshoot these electric carts pretty easy?

[Muddog]

Yes, there's others here with much more knowledge that will be happy to help as well.
How much is he asking for cart and where are you ?

[jckrall]

he is asking 1600

[Muddog]

If you are buying the cart for personal use. I'd buy at $1600, if he won't move on price.
If you are buying to resale.
If the batteries are less than 2 years old, I'd try to buy at $1500.
2+ years old I'd be more in the $1200 to $1400 range.
That's a good looking cart.
I wouldn't work him too hard.
I don't know where you are, so I don't know your market, here I'd be putting that cart on my trailer.
