Re: Need help!!! Ezgo txt 2001 slow motion
I could chime in. But, it would likely cost you a controller....and a fried one at that. So, I won't.

Re: Need help!!! Ezgo txt 2001 slow motion
Update on the cart .
I bypassed the forward and reverse switch with no change. After ruling out the FnR switch I decided that the motor might be the problem. I tested for continuity across A1/A1 and S1/S2. It seemed like there was no continuity across A1/A2 . I decided to take the motor out to test again and get ready to replace if it was bad. When I got it off a large about of black dust came out . I tested continuity again and this time it had continuity across both sets of terminals . I blew he motor out with compressed air and reinstalled it. Now the cart rolls again but still crawls for a block or so at low speed before it picks up some speed. I wonder if the motor took some damage from that built up dust or of my ITS is still giving me throttle issues ?? I ordered a new ITS to make sure |

You probably need new brushes. (and maybe some cleanup of the commutator) I would pull the motor again and disassemble it. That kind of motor problem can damage the controller.

Re: Need help!!! Ezgo txt 2001 slow motion
After letting the batteries charge all day the pack voltage came to 38.2
With each battery measuring 6.7 I took it for a spin around the block to see if anything has changed from the cleaned out motor. It only made it about a block before it lost power and wouldn't move I decided to load test the batteries to make sure they were good. 5 out of the six batteries dropped to 5.6 while under load The 6th one dropped to 5.06 under load Sounds like that 6th battery Is bad for sure , not sure if a drop to 5.4 is acceptable While load testing them I noticed the motor was getting very hot. I'm to sure if that was due to the motor trying to move the cart or from me disturbing the dust inside |
