36v shudder.. motor? alltrax 400. Pics

Re-reading this I notice in the F&R pic that the bottom lug at 6 0'clock is blackened? IF there is a color change on any of the lugs it is likely from heat damage and your contacts could be compromised... in which case you would benefit from either a rebuild or replacement... I suggest a HD switch cam and new lug studs IF the housing (which is very easily damaged by heat) is still holding the studs in their original positions, meaning they are not tilted or sunken ... Once the housing gets hot you should just get a new unit because the contacts will loose their alignment and contact percentage will be compromised...

so we kinda took apart the f&r and cleaned it up pretty good. seemed to be better for a little while, then it started acting up again.. so i think its time to replace it with HD.. i think he has stock solenoid too so we will probably get that while we are at it.

replaced f&r with HD, replaced solenoid with HD... no change at all. now he is convinced its the motor and wants to get a plumquick. whatever, if he keeps buying parts.. i'll keep installing them. lol, before long he's bound to get it fixed i guess.

got a friend that tinkers with carts.. he had a used motor laying around. swapped it out and it fixed the problem.

so we're sending the shot motor to plumquick and should be back in business in a week or so. the other parts looked to be in rough shape anyway, so no worries i guess

Keep us posted.
