Will not move w/o jumping charger plug

Jimbo2012 · 09-13-2013, 03:16 PM

Friend gave me an 1997 CC (serial # A97) said every once in while after stopping it will not go.

But all I needed to do was jump 2 of the 3 charging pins below seat and it will work.

Most of the time it works fine, but not all the time so I jump it.

Someone said the grey wire is not connected good and the computer thinks its plugged into the charger and therefore will not engage the motor.

But I can't continue this jumping every 1 of 10 times I want to move.

What can I check to resolve this.

. . . did you check the sense lead fuse?

I checked the one on the grey wire, if that's the one you mean.

Stevegrmich · 09-14-2013, 06:12 AM

. . . which two pins are you jumping at the charge receptacle?

Jimbo2012 · 09-14-2013, 06:15 AM

I'm doing it while sitting reaching under the seat so I'm not sure.

I think the grey & black

Stevegrmich · 09-14-2013, 06:20 AM

. . . did you try cleaning/tightening the three connections on back of charger receptacle?

Jimbo2012 · 09-14-2013, 06:23 AM

No because it charges fine, but I'll take a look.

I can drive say 5 miles stop for ten minutes and it won't go, jump it and it works

Or it will work fine for days

. . . is there also a black "jumper" wire on the back of the receptacle? . . . the hard part is trying to figure out what the back of the receptacle has to do with the cart not wanting to run . . .

Jimbo2012 · 09-15-2013, 06:13 AM

yes a short one.

There are three main wires red, black & Grey

Jimbo2012 · 09-16-2013, 11:26 AM

can't get this going, just plugged in the charger and it goes all the way to left.

batteries are fully charged on my meter.

Is there a step by step process of elimination?
