48v 97 club car goes full power??? New guy help

[Cfporter]

Hi group I've just finished restoring a 97 club car. New batteries & cables. My problem is as soon as I press the gas pedal the cart goes full throttle. I'm talking bark the rear tires. I've looked all over and can't find an answer. Or I may not be searching the right way. Please help

Did I not post this the correct way?

It is most likely a problem with the throttle.

If You have a Multi-Step potentiometer (VGlide Box), it can be a bad resistor or a disconnected wire.

Make sure the purple wire is connected to Controller B-.

If it is, disconnect the Yellow wire from Controller Terminal #3.

Set Your meter to 20vDC and measure the voltage from the Yellow wire to Controller B-.

The voltage should start at 0v and climb to 5v+ as you press the pedal.

yes you posted correctly
do you have the "pie shaped " v-glide or the mocr under the cart ?

Thanks for the replies guys. I put a new vglid on but did not put new resistors No change. Should I try those or controller?

[Sergio]

Are You saying that You replaced the Multi-Step potentiometer (VGlide) body but re-used all of the resistors from the old unit?

if so, make sure You put all of the wires in the correct place, specifically the wire on post #3:

Yes sir that is correct. The wires are wired exactly that Waylon the diagram you supplied. I also replaced the micro switches on the back of the forward reverse switch.

Then go ahead and do that voltage reading on the yellow wire...

Copy that. I'm at work for 24hours. I will do it tomorrow and let you know the results.
