Re: Letting foot off accelerator automatically engages brakes in full
I had an issue with mine locking up as well, mine is a 2013. I jacked up, made sure the u bolts are tight and the axle is aligned, since mines is lifted as well. After I did all that, it still happens every once in a while. Sometimes I just touch the brake pedal and they lock a little. I noticed it going over a manhole cover as well. I cant tighten the u bolts any more then they are, and I double checked that the axle was aligned properly. Anything else I can try to get that brake cable to have a little more room
? Do they make longer ones for lifted carts? Can I adjust them? It is a lot better now, as it was happening every time I drive the cart, before I re tightened everything. |

Yes, Club Car now makes a longer cable for the drivers side brake, call David with RevolutionGolfCars.com as he likely have them in stock.
Even when the U-Bolts are tight, sometimes the leaf spring itself deforms with the motor changes in rotational torque and allows for small changes in the cable tension. |

Re: Letting foot off accelerator automatically engages brakes in full
Do you ever find the solution for this problem? I have a DS doing the exact same thing.

Re: Letting foot off accelerator automatically engages brakes in full
Tight breaks are a common problem with all carts. They not only can cause the problem you are having , they also will shorten battery life considerably. They should not be touching the drums.
