Did you have the starter/generator checked when it went out?
What is going out on them?

I may be wrong, but I believe that the voltage regulator regulates the voltage created from the starter / generator charges the battery. Tge starter / generator creats it's own voltage. I think you have something other than a regulator issue.

That's correct. V starts at the generator and is then regulated.
Does the cart start easily? Belt too tight?

That's why I was asking what was actually wrong with the S/G.
VR isn't likely a culprit.

yes cart starts easy replaced all belts cart was not running when i got it had the str/gen checked by local starter repair shop they rebuilt it put it on cart it lasted ten min of run time took back to them he said it was my fault so he rebuit it again charged me more money 2nd time around so then i put it back in with new belt and regulator it starts fine runs fine then i looked at the old reg it had a crack on the jell side so i was wondering if it was the reg burning up the starters cause there expensive if not that then what else is there too look for that would burn up the starters thanks for allyour help eagle

I'll see if I can't find a diagram or something. The foot pedal switch energizes the starter w12 VDC. Let's see what is there. I don't know a lot about CC's. But, I can learn quick

I'll be a little $##*. That's about the only component that could do it.The only other things there are a solenioid, microswitches and a fuse box.
Let's see if someone else knows about the solenoid and regulator connections. I'll keep studying.
A V regulator and solenoid are a LOT cheaper than a starter.
The regulator is $45.00! Must be gold plated....

Where are the club car pro's tonight?? I'll find out something tomorow, when everything is open. I can bother people at Club Car!..
