Default '99 Ez-Go 36 volt DCS

When putting the cart in Forward, sometimes there will be a slight delay and the cart will go in Reverse for a brief second or so and then go Forward and the same when moving to Reverse, will go forward for a brief few seconds and then on to Reverse.

Would this be an issue with the F/R switch or something else?

Thanks!

Those symptoms sound like the controller is telling you it might be about to give up. Might be a time for an upgrade.

Agreed, The controller redirects current for directional travel changes. I have not heard of the F&R switch failing in this manner.

Looks at the Alltrax XCT control for DCS

Thank you for the responses. I'm going to pull the controller, this week. Since this is a spare cart of mine and not my primary cart, is there a source to get the controller rebuilt or locate a used one?

it may be cheaper in the long run to get alltrax...
rebuilds often fail-but some last a while...kind of a gamble...
is your cart a series?is it a toaster?

I have a working when removed (about 3 months ago) controller from a '99 TXT DCS. P/N 73144G06. If you are interested, PM me.

I was finally able to get to the cart to pull the controller. I have attached a picture showing the model & S/N. What are the best options and pricing currently available? I would prefer to support the vendors that help to support this website. This cart does belong to my 88 year old mother, so I don't need any extra speed, at this time. Thanks!

My 84 year old mother's cart runs low twenties

She might like the speed

An investment now in the Alltrax world be a good one. Little more money but much more forgiving and it can be setup with multiple modes depending on who's driving.
