Axe 400 48v fried after charging day after FR mods
On my 96 Ezgo series cart: series motor with past mod to 48v via 8v's, and 8yr old 36-48v Axe 400 and a White HD 48v solenoid.
Sat for a while with old batteries: I recently put in new batteries, new 2 ga cable set, and new HD contactor FR kit with rocker switch. After getting these new items installed it ran like a champ all day, various drives, a mile or two total, no problems. Batt read a hair less than 48v when I put on charge with key switch off. Charged overnight, read 50.2 or so: unhooked charger and I started to back it out and it chattered/slammed hard into reverse. When it rolled to a stop I switched to fwd and it did the same with some crackling arcing sounds then died. When I lifted the seat there was some smoke coming out of the axe contoller. Turned keyed it of and back on, tried the pedal once more and just smoke. I unhooked batt cables and let it sit. I'm sure I got a good life out of the Axe, but I want to make sure no problems in my FR mod rewiring would have contributed to its demise before I stick a new one in. Odd that it happened immediately after charging the batts. Any thoughts or possible errors in wiring anyone can think of to check on? |

Re: Axe 400 48v fried after charging day after FR mods
If you drove it around just before it cooked, i would say wiring was not likely the problem.
