Default RXV Maintenance

Besides battery care (watering, lug tightening) and cleaning what other routine maintenance does an RXV require? Are there grease fittings and such to lube? What do you RXV owners do to maintain your carts?

I would assume you need to check and adjust the brakes like on anything.

No brakes on an electric RXV. All braking is fly by wire via the electric motor.

My personal experiences with RXVs have led to checking rear hubs to be tight and front suspension bushings wearing out. Other than that standard battery maintenance.

Read any one of 2 doz. posts by Gornoman, CGtech or myself for RXV brake operation info.

Recommended maint (My humbler opinion )

Key in OFF position !!!

Monthly--
cables , batteries and water. check tires & lug nuts

every 6 months

Check front and bushings.
Grease king pins (lift kits)

Any more ? Not a whole lot to do on RXV,s

Keep the battery area Super-Clean, no acid buildup, no corrosion. Thats number 1 in my book. RXV wire harness is prone to acid damage, keep it spotless clean. Baking soda & water mix, then a straight water rinse.

Thanks, guys! I'm meticulous about the batts. Just wondering about the rest. Pretty maintenance free beyond the no brainer stuff.
