Re: Speed reduced
That's words of wisdom right there.

Re: Speed reduced
I think Teecro is on to something. The welded contacts on the solenoid will give you that problem. They could have stuck the first time you started and not released. Check voltage from pack neg. to each side of the large post on the solenoid. If it is the same on each post they are stuck, or the pre charge resistor is shorted. Should be about a volt or so different.

Re: Speed reduced
I vote for solenoid or pre-charge resistor. These guys are correct. If the controller doesn't detect an increase of voltage when the solenoid closes, it'll trigger a MAIN WELDED fault and operate at half speed.

Solenoid is good. Is there away to test the precharge resistor?

Re: Speed reduced
Thanks MrG precharge resisitor is ok. Is it possible for the cart to pass the speed sensor test and still have a bad speed sensor?

Re: Speed reduced
It could be you have a bad controller if the solenoid shows open on the ohms test with the wires off the large post. O/L on meter if it shows 0.00 the contacts are stuck.
