36 volt ezgo

bear2barry · 06-04-2018, 02:32 PM

need some help on this and I no it has to be easy but have a 92 ezgo 36 volt and not sure if motor is good. when I hit pedal the selinoid clicks but nothing else. how do I go about jumping the motor to see if it works? also there is a small diode across wires and a big diode on large posts of solenoid do I need that big diode and if so where can I get it ? thanks for the help in advance.

How are you measuring at the motor? From terminal to terminal?

Also is this a stock cart? I have a 1993 Ezgo and just redid the whole thing, so maybe I can help.

ty 420 for your response and yes its all stock. I used a volt meter and put ground on battery and tested the volts when I hit peddle both forward & rev. I cked ever point from solenoid to the controllers to computer and then to motor all is getting around 35 volts.

Sounds like you may be right about the motor. I'd keep looking back on your thread here, you'll get some testing tips. Sounds like your testing it correctly.

I have a '91 Marathon that we were having the same problems with. found the wire from to Pot to the microswitch were missing/broke. Replaced F/R switch & replaced the broken wires & it ran. But now I'm in the same boat after removing all lighting wiring. Not sure if my hubby "removed" needed wiring. He's not very good with wiring & he was not patient enough to wait for me!

35v? Is that the actual reading you’re getting? You said around 35, but what’s the exact reading? I’m not sure if that’s enough to turn the motor, or not, but that’s only 20% soc. Really, really low.
