100% power no in between
Hey Guys new to the group and just purchase my first club car it's a 1996 ds 48v. I put new batteries, new battery cables and solenoid in it. The problem I'm having is as you just touch the gas pedal it's all the power no in between meaning I can't creep a long. When I touch the gas it jerks/slams when it goes. Any info would be great the kiddos are so excited.

Re: 100% power no in between
Is it possible the throttle is reversed? Jack a wheel off the deck.
With the cart in gear, hold the pedal down, turn the key on. Does the wheel turn faster when you let the gas up? |

Re: 100% power no in between
Just tried it. It stays the same speed until it hits the switch. In f/r.

Re: 100% power no in between
Test the signal from the throttle wires. Could be 0-5000 Ω or 5000-0 depending upon the year or what pot is in it. Then take a good look at the controller and see what it is set for, throttle signal wise.

Re: 100% power no in between
Does it have a big lever to switch fwd/reverse, or a rocker switch? Does it have a pie shaped thing between the batteries (multi-step-pot) or is the accelerator connected to a 4 x 6" box thing just below the floorboards (CVP)?

Re: 100% power no in between
It seems to be 0 without pedal and it was jumping from 5 to 7 with the pedal press down all the way. The controller looks pretty basic no adjustment.

Re: 100% power no in between
Big lever for f/r and the pot is a small box under the floor board.

Re: 100% power no in between
Well in some cases the CVP "can" be opened/inspected/serviced/repaired if its at fault. See attached. BUT it seems to me in 1996 (assumes your serial number starts with A96 or similar) the POT should be 5K to 0 ohms at full accelerator (or are you talking volts on your "5 to 7" measurement?) There is a kit to replace that CVP at Revolution Golf Cars to a modern MCOR (the CVP is no longer available). Are you measuring ohms? At this point, the controller is still as suspect as the pedal - it might want the reverse of what your pedal is supplying.

Re: 100% power no in between
At the plug underneath the car I'm getting a reading of 5 on my multimeter with the yellow and purple wire then when you press the pedal down it will show 4.3. I'm I not doing something right? Should I be testing some other wires or spot?
