Is my cart AC or DC?
I just bought a 2017 Yamaha that I assumed was AC. The model is DR2E17 and it says Max Power: 6.7 HP 5.0 KW. Is this an AC cart. I looked up the serial number (J0C-000XXX) and it cross references a DC Unit. Can it be DC and have the 6.7 HP motor?

Re: Is my cart AC or DC?
If the nameplate reads 6.7 HP 5KW, but the serial is for a DC Fleet model, I can’t figure out which motor it is...

Just look at your motor. If it has 3 large cables going to it, its AC. If it has 2 large cables & 2 small cables, its DC.

Re: Is my cart AC or DC?
So, I don't see a serial no. Just a model no on that label.
You can tell by looking at the motor as they look different than DC motors. It the motor has connections labeled A1,A2 and F1,F2 then its a DC motor. Yamaha AC carts have Toyota controllers. Says Toyota right on it. DC carts have Curtis I believe. edit: cgtech jumped in there while I was typing. He will know for sure. |
