Cart Suddenly Brakes
Hi everyone,
I have a 2008 EZGO RXV, mostly stock and not lifted. When coming to a stop, the brakes lock up on my cart. It doesn't happen every time I brake, seems like only once in an outing. I checked the batteries and each measure 12+V under no load. No other issues as far as I can tell. I've read that if the battery V become low, it causes the brakes to lock up. But my batteries seem ok... Any thoughts? |

Re: Cart Suddenly Brakes
Lithium batteries? If so, Regen current might be too high for what I suspect are general purpose 12v lithium batteries you have and the BMS may be disconnecting, hence the EMB locks up.

Re: Cart Suddenly Brakes
When coming to a stop, the em brake should lock up, always. It shouldn't engage, as long as the cart is in motion.

Re: Cart Suddenly Brakes
My buddy had this kind of failure and it was a bad solenoid. If the solenoid opens while driving, the brake slams you to a stop.

Re: Cart Suddenly Brakes
Thanks everyone, this is intermittent. Took the cart out tonight and it was fine. Will report back if it happens again and where I go from there.
