08 Emerge no drive fwd or reverse
New to me from a family member 2008 emerge (1050 hrs) just put new Trojan batteries in let them charge up then drove for 15-20 mins parked and plugged back in for a bit then unplugged and 3 days later now won’t move fwd or reverse. Have all lights, dash lights backup beeper etc. can hear switch click when hitting accelerator pedal. Have checked for loose cables, looked at parking brake switch for loose wires checked two fuses I found so far and don’t see anything. In Midwest and have not found anyone within 3 hrs 45 mins that will take a look at it. Any pointers of some items to try or look for?
Thanks in advance for your time. |

Re: 08 Emerge no drive fwd or reverse
Check your battery voltage first. Always charge the batteries until the charger shuts off. New batteries only have around 75% of capacity, they needs 20 - 100 loading cycles to get 100%. Always charge the batts. after every use.

Re: 08 Emerge no drive fwd or reverse
I just had the same issue with a neighbor's cart. Hearing the switch click when you hit the accelerator means that you are getting power to the controller, so it is def not your batteries.
I was able to reset the controller by pulling all the fuses and all my issues went away. Lubricated the brake switch controller and glued a washer to the switch plate to make sure it press the switch down fully. That has helped with the recurrence of the problem.
