Re: 2016 Club Car Precedent just jerks
Ok checked out the cart with my Fluke digital voltmeter and I'm not getting the reading I was getting when it was hooked up to the computer, voltmeter stays pretty consistent at just over 50V. When it was hooked up to the Alltrax software it was going from the 50s to mid-30s So I'm thinking it's the controller when the cart shakes it cutting in and out. I have double and triple checked all the connections everything is tight that can be tightened.

Re: 2016 Club Car Precedent just jerks
The solenoid is the gateway to the controller and the cable is highway. Appears to be an issue in one of those two areas as the controller is not getting the voltage when the demand is there.

Re: 2016 Club Car Precedent just jerks
The solenoid is a brand new one, and the cables look fine, but I know that don,t always mean anything short of replacing the cables is there any way of testing them?

Re: 2016 Club Car Precedent just jerks
With all cables attached and the cart powered On, Attach voltmeter leads to each end of the cable. Apply a load (try to drive the cart) and see if the voltage reading goes up.
It should stay at or very near 0v. If it jumps UP when put under load it's because of resistance or internal problem in the cable. Repeat for each battery cable as well as the main power and ground cables for the controller. Another way you can test them out of the cart is to tug on each end. Sometimes a poorly crimped end will slide right off. If the cable feels stretchy, it could have a break somewhere in the middle inside the insulation. |

Hook your meter Red probe to B+ and the Black probe to B- both at the controller with alligator clips. Now run to cart as normal with the DVM on the seat and the Tool Kit running on your laptop. See if the DVM mimics the dips you see on the Monitor screen.

Re: 2016 Club Car Precedent just jerks
Ok update on the Club Car, I finely took to a professional, and after checking it out said it was the solenoid, replaced it and it works great. So, the piece of crap solenoids "Golf Carts Unlimited" sell are "SW180 Heavy-duty solenoid with magnetic breakouts" I have had two of them, and what are the odds of getting two bad ones a month apart. I want to thank you all for your input and advice. And I would say stat away from Golf Carts Unlimited! their Tec support is, "Put it on BUGGIES GONE WILD and maybe someone can help you fix it!!!!!!"

Re: 2016 Club Car Precedent just jerks
This is what I have, two of them as a matter of fact. You know when you think you did all your homework, and finally pull the trigger. Only to find out you was reading out of the wrong book! Lesson learned.
