2014 RXV Fails
Good Evening,
I have a 2014 RXV that has been great for the first year of ownership. This year, its been nothing but trouble. The dealership place near me wants 800$ to pickup, troubleshoot and whatever is wrong with it so I have been trying to read the posts and figure it out. Here is what happened. I parked it for the night and when I tried to use the next day, it would double click like normal but no click when you press the throttle. I reversed the 1/2/3/4 connectors to free the brake and move it out of the way. I replaced the solenoid and the 7.5amp fuse that I found blown and its still not moving. The tow switch does nothing when selected. The cart when in the run position does click 2 times from the solenoid when I move the key from off to Forward or Backwards but that's it. Pack voltage is 49.3-50.4 tested with multimeter. (depends on charge level when tested) I seems difficult to troubleshoot without a reader. Maybe that's what I need to do to figure this out once and for all. I appreciate the assistance. I wish I had a trailer and a vehicle to tow it to the dealership but 800$ seems crazy just to see what's wrong with it. |

Re: 2014 RXV Fails
Good luck. usgicollector will be along shortly to give you some advice.
I bought my non-running ‘13 RXV in May and I’m still trying to clean up the cobwebs New batteries fixed my 1st issue. New input shaft fixed my 2nd issue. Now maybe a new reverse buzzer will fix my 3rd issue. Here I thought I had gotten a deal at $2000. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: 2014 RXV Fails
Sounds like your not passing the startup test. Get the Curtis troubleshooting guide and do some checking. This could be just a bad switch you need to check a few things.

Re: 2014 RXV Fails
With the startup guide can you do some of the tests without the controller programmer?

Re: 2014 RXV Fails
Thanks for the info. I went out and bought a brand new multimeter because I was testing the throttle switches and I get NOTHING. Same with the new Multimeter. 0 volts detected. I followed the guide and put the key to the forward position and I hear the clunk and two clicks then I test.
So I should start with that maybe? |

Re: 2014 RXV Fails
Got to testing today with an actual car mechanic. We found the electronic brake to be failed. It’s testing 3.4 and blowing the fuse.

Re: 2014 RXV Fails
Bought a oem replacement brake. It’s different than mine. Nothing lined up. Can’t get the screws to thread in whatsoever. Horrible design. I’m ready to junk it and get a club car has that someone nearby is selling.
