Precedent, limp mode, solenoid test

[Flutie3115]

Tested the solenoid just now. When pedal is released, I here the click to turn it off, but it still shows power to the terminals when pedal is released. Also turning the cart off it still shows power to the terminals. The only way to not have power to the terminals is putting it in tow mode. Does that mean it could be draining my battery? Someone suggested I also could have a bad battery.

It would be helpful to explain exactly how you tested the solenoid. Where are you placing the probes of your multimeter and what setting are you using?

Where did you purchase your controller, motor and solenoid?

In the Alltrax toolkit in the Controller Settings is "Enable Speed Limit" checked or unchecked? If it's NOT checked and you're having this problem, then your speed sensor needs to be replaced, according to the Alltrax manual.

Also, check the connections to the sensor to be sure they are tight and not working loose while driving..
