EXGO TXT ITS Issues
I am trying to help a friend that has had intermittent problems with their 2000ish EZGO TXT Series cart. Alltrax AXE Controller lights seem fine and the volts seem right. Started think it was the ITS. Today, it measured correctly while the cart was working, but when the cart stopped working, the numbers were off.
It seems cheap enough to just buy a new ITS and replace it. Just want to see if you would replace just the ITS (black piece that surrounds the plunger) or would you replaced other items as well? Thanks for any help. |

Re: EXGO TXT ITS Issues
There is a 4 wire plug in the harness between the pedal box and the controller. Clean or eliminate the plug before replacing the ITS. Also consider replacing the foot switch.

Re: EXGO TXT ITS Issues
Just an update..... ITS replacement did not solve the problem. Still waiting on the microswitch to arrive.

Re: EXGO TXT ITS Issues
While you are waiting clean or replace the 4 wire plug mentioned earlier with 4 crimp connectors. It is a know problem area.

Re: EXGO TXT ITS Issues
Thanks ScottyB. I was finally able to get down there and help in person. I did some troubleshooting from the Stickies posts, and it seems the controller is the issue. The led light on the controller does not turn orange at full throttle. Also, V does not drop to 0 (or at all) between M- and B- as the pedal is depressed.

Re: EXGO TXT ITS Issues
Do as Scotty says. When I see this problem, I always cut off the 4 pin plug and make solder connections and enclose in a watertight cover. You can also use crimp connectors .

Re: EXGO TXT ITS Issues
These connector pins are subject to Fretting Corrosion. It more likely to cause problems in a connection that has little or no current flow such as the ITS signal. In addition to this problem corrosion can cause cross leakage between the pedal switch voltage and the ITS signal if the connector gets wet.

Re: EXGO TXT ITS Issues
I had checked continuity through the plug and checked for corrosion. I did not remove the plug yet, but will do that. I don't have a problem eliminating it. Will report back. Thanks again
