Solenoid stays pulled in
Like it says up top. But the cart runs and drives with a green light on the alltrax.
Turn the switch off and it goes off. Checked microswitch and it opens and closes with the pedel. Theres a diode think it could be bad? The solenoid gets hot to the touch just sitting still. Any ideas? |

Re: Solenoid stays pulled in
Sounds like a stuck closed micro switch (ms). Check the F&R ms and then the peddle box ms.

Re: Solenoid stays pulled in
Its a pds carts btw.
Does a pds cart have a forwars reverse ms? I also checked the microswitch under the floormat and it seems ok. I dont think its a bad solenoid would it? I can cut the key switch off and it will open. |

Re: Solenoid stays pulled in
PDS cart with a DCX or a NCX, so about the only things that will keep the solenoid energized is a bad pedal switch or a bad controller.
Since the solenoid de-energizes when the key is shut off, I'm leaning towards the pedal switch being bad or the wiring to/from it being shorted together. Flip the Run/Tow to Tow and unplug J4 (cable from pedal box) from the PDS to DCX adapter and measure between Pins 1 & 2 with an Ohmmeter. Should be open with pedal up and closed with pedal down. |
