DS Won't Go
Have Pre-2000 Club Car that won't go. Nearest repair shop is 60mins away and me with no trailer to transport so I would like to troubleshoot before Igo to the hassle of getting it into the shop.
Details: -Battery's accepting charge, fully charged, and all connections cleaned -When pressing accelerator, I hear click sound and feel an ever so slight and momentary movement. -When it failed I was rolling slightly backward as I touched the accelerator and felt a very brief moment of acceleration (enough to stop backward rolling) followed immediately by no movement. -at failure moment, did not hear any mechanical breaking or other sounds. While I am quite mechanical and my first instinct is assume bad electric motor, likely however there are other controller(s)/system/parts/etc... I should inspect/test first. Advice on how to narrow down the issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks |

Re: DS Won't Go
Welcome to BGW!
Yeah, it could be the controller if its a controller cart. Also do you know if it 36 or 48 volt? The serial number is right above the go pedal under the dash... |
