How good are the fault codes on a PDS ez go cart???
I see lots of difference code that don't turn out to be the real problem.
When I read about them on the forum, I know some are spot on.
Just asking.

Thanks
Sonny

The veracity of computer generated error codes is dependent on competency of the person(s) that wrote the subroutine for that error flag.

Having troubleshot malfunctioning computer based devices for decades, I tend to view error codes as symptoms rather than accepting them factually at their face value or accepting that the suggested list of possible faults and corrective measures are all inclusive.

The PDS error codes are pretty good for the most part, but not always.

Thank you JohnnieB I for one have had mixed success trying to use them.
But I will say, I'm not the sharpest tool in the box.
