2008 ezgo txt 36v electric Sepex PDS runs then stops
Stupid question from a new owner #2
I have a 2008 ezgo txt 36v Sepex with PDS. When I got the cart you could drive on flat or downhill terrain and the cart would slow down its self and stop and beep 15 times continuously. I figured it was stopping the cart from going to fast. I ordered a freedom plug performance #4 and it still does this. I've put the cart in diagnostic mode and it only beeps 4 times to tell me the mode it's in, but doesn't beep any Fault/error codes like I was reading in the manual. Can anyone give me some insight into this problem? Thank you |

An intermittent connection in the keyswitch or F/R switch circuits can cause the problem you describe.
If the key is turned off or the F/R switch is shifted to Neutral or to the opposite direction of travel, max regen braking will be applied and the beeper will beep rapidly. I'm not sure if the beep sequence is limited to 15, or if it stops when the cart has slowed to <2MPH, or maybe when it stops. |

Should I try pulling the F/R switch first to check connections? Or just replace the rocker switch now. Then if it still does it then go to the ignition switch? |

Check the connections first. I've had a factory crimp-on connector fail on my 2008 PDS and the wires in your 2008 PDS have probably wiggled around just as much as mine have.
It was the in-line connection in the red wire from the charge receptacle and it failed when I was about ten miles from home. Fortunately I had a DVM with me and I have the PDS schematic memorized. Unfortunately, I didn't have much in the line of tools, but the wire pulled out of the crimp-on connectors easy and a nail clipper took care of stripping off enough insulation to twist the bare copper ends together. |

Thank you. I'll give it a try and see if that fixes it.

I didn't realize he made that kit but I relocated mine and it makes it much easier to use. I would have liked a "plug and play" kit.
