1991 gas club car ignition/kill problems
Hello, I'm still struggling with our old club car--it won't start without a jump and won't kill until the sparkplug wire is pulled. I think it could be a problem with the accelerator starter limit switch and the accelerator kill limit switch, but I don't know. Can't I just by pass all the fancy accelerator start stuff and wire in a bump switch direct?

Re: 1991 gas club car ignition/kill problems
have you tried replacing the micro switches in the black box? if your having to jump it to start than its either a bad battery or bad voltage regulator.......but the not shutting off could be as simple as a bad micro switch...................................

Re: 1991 gas club car ignition/kill problems
Those pesky switches....we wondered if that wouldn't be it. I am going to check prices for them and start there I guess.. all the parts for these things are kinda high, I'm use to Chevy-cheap parts. Thanks for your reply, like I said in my intro, I know NOTHING about golf carts, and this site has been SO helpful! Thanks again!

The fuse for the key switch in in the control box under the seat, not in the dash - but if by buzzer you mean the reverse warning buzzer, that should be on the same fuse.

Re: 1991 gas club car ignition/kill problems
The reverse buzzer on the old carts had no fuse. Power for that comes straight from the solenoid B+ post. It would be a good idea to add a fuse to that, because if that wire ever gets pinched or shorted to the frame the wire will fry and can burn the cart down with it.
Your key switch gets power from a fuse in the electrical box under the seat. Check the fuse and the connections at the solenoid. It's possible the key switch has finally bit the dust just from age. If the fuse checks out OK, check for 12v reaching the key switch. If you have 12V going in, but none coming out the switch is bad. |

Maybe it got bumped into maintenance mode by accident (cam slipped off the switch lever)? Check that little yellow cam on the backside of the shifter. One of the cam "bumps" has to push that microswitch lever in, in order for the cart to run.
