92 electric club car problems

[Wrinnkle]

I have a 48 volt, 1992 electric club car. The batteries are all up and good but when I accelerate the car, it only goes a short distance and then cuts out. I have to let off the gas, wait for the solinoid to click out and then I can press on the gas again and then it will accelerate again. When going up hills, it kicks out twice as fast. Going down hill, it hardly ever kicks out. Seems like the more load, the easier it kicks out. Anybody got any ideas???
Aslo the electric brake for going down hills is not enguaging either

Sounds like a bad solenoid. There were no 48v carts made in 1992. So it is either a conversion or not a 92. It won't have electric braking (regen) unless it is a Sepex motor which again they did not make in 92... so what is your serial #?

sorry its not a 92 i think its a 04 ...its at the coarse does that make more sense
I thought the clicking sound was the solenoid and i hear it click in but the car cuts out and solenoid dosnt click out till i let off gas pedal

always start with basics, i know you say batteries are up but that dosn,t mean its not a battery or cable problem.......test and load test batteries and check and if needed clean cables ......give each one a pull make sure they are tight and make certain batteries are holding under load........................

i have replaced 2 batteries this spring and all the wires ... everything should be fine.. i have pulled poked at the wires and they look good.. i am gonna do a more in depth look at the wiring next time i get up there. just thought someone might of heard of this particular problem before and save me some time looking in the wrong place thanx

from what it sounds like its either something with batteries or soleniod thats where i would start...............................
