Precedent Electric 48v will not start

clubcarfl · 06-15-2019, 04:02 PM

I noticed something interesting today, when I check the voltage from the positive to neg across I get 42V now.

Individually I get 8.2.

Check the battery in your volt meter.

If the converted stopped functioning would this cause the ignition to stop working? Would it be a worth while activity to bypass the converter and wire directly from the battery?

When you have the Run/Tow in Run, key On, rocker in Fwd and Go Pedal depressed, do you here the solenoid behind the batteries "Click"? If so, does it click again after you let off??

As an update, the reverse signal is no longer making any noise. Does this point to a controller issue?

I would suggest that you completely remove that 48-12v converter and see if your problems go away.

1. Bypassed the reducer. Lights turned on for a second and then turned off. They would not turn back on. Fuse is still okay.

2. I must have tested the reverse buzz in tow mode, I was mistaken - this still works.
