199? 48 volt V-Glide DS problem
Like the title says, diagnosing a 48 volt DS with a V-glide, mid-late 90s model I assume, controller is under the rear body on passenger side. The cart will go maybe an inch in forward, sometimes not at all, then maybe a little in reverse, and after some fooling for maybe five minutes it'll take off and run just like normal. I have to check it out in person tomorrow evening, aside from the normal stuff like batteries, all connections, and bad wires, any thoughts on what to check out?

Re: 199? 48 volt V-Glide DS problem
Hmmm, and maybe moving inches on the resistor, only going well when the solenoid engages. Good call Scotty! I'll check it out tomorrow and report back.

Re: 199? 48 volt V-Glide DS problem
That was a thought I had too, taking provisions to test it. Thought maybe a controller problem, but in my experience they don't do what this one's doing when they're bad - do they?

 I think I have a spare 48 volt solenoid, I'll have to dig though - I have four or five 36 volt ones, but I rarely work on 48 volt carts. I might have to go to the local dealer and pay his exorbitant prices for a new one. |

Re: 199? 48 volt V-Glide DS problem
Actually belongs to a car lot - the owner bought several at an auction to sell on his lot and has problems with this one. A friend of his knows a friend of mine who told him I work on carts.
I'll just have to pass the exorbitant pricing on, I hate doing that though. |
