Re: New owner of 98 txt with dcs will not start
Prior intermittent events (over past 3 weeks)- I did nothing. It would work or not work on it's own over a day or a week between attempts to run cart.
Today intermittent events -I removing and replacing the terminal block (white block that connects 7+wires to DCS)just after the cart work when it did not work. The remove and replace has "fixed" the problems three times 1) cart will not work 2) remove and replace block connector 3) cart works 4) continue testing 5) cart will not work again 6) go to #2 and repeat Any better? |

Re: New owner of 98 txt with dcs will not start
Is a short the same as a lose wire?
How can I fix a short? |

Now the cart will only move forward even if it should be going back ward. The reverse alarm has not worked all spring. Could a defective micro-switch be the problem?

Reverse is handled within the controller on a DCS cart. |

Re: New owner of 98 txt with dcs will not start
I disconnected the battery pack before opening the cover to the DCS, but did not flip the tow switch. Should I have? Could the problem be a lose connection?
The cart moved in reverse two times out of 8 to 10 attempts. Could ambient temperature have anything to do with behavior of the cart? |

Re: New owner of 98 txt with dcs will not start
One of the hardest things to fix is an intermittent electrical bad connection.
I would rather something explode ~ so I can see what to replace |
