EZ GO Key switch for radio

Vandy_Guy · 10-24-2019, 01:07 PM

Does anyone know which connection on the back of the key switch I need to hook up to my radio accessory line? I need the radio to only turn on when I turn the key to the ON or ON+LIGHTS positions. This is on a 2013 EZ GO Express GAS cart. I'm going to assume it's the middle one that has a double connector with a red wire and light blue wire coming off them. Unless that is only the ON+LIGHTS. If so, how would I connect it for ON or ON+LIGHTS?Thanks!

Use a test light or volt meter and see which one has power only when in the position you require.

I can't seem to get any consistent readings to determine what is what. Might be my voltage meter or some type of discharge that must occur because I'm randomly getting over 40V.

If you have a gas engine with a single 12 volt battery, and a meter giving random 40 volt readings, it's time for a new meter.

I figured it out by trial and error. It was the B1 terminal.
