Default 1994 EZ-GO 36v TXT Controller Replacement?

Have a new to me 1994 ez-go 36v txt that is shorting out at the controller. Took it to a shop and they quoted $700 installed.... Any recommendation on a replacement part? I don’t want to spend a ton of money on it (just getting the mail and doing some yard work with it). Interested if there’s a recommendation on why to replace it with. It does have a small lift and larger tires.

Thanks in advance for any guidance!!

Alltrax SR48400, solenoid and 4 ga wires. Cost a little bit but will be more reliable.

If it’s a 94 it might be a medalist. Is the body plastic or metal? I’d get an Alltrax controller and do it yourself. It’s pretty easy to install and you can program it whenever you want.

Do you have a series or DCS drive system?

Thanks for the welcome, lots of good info. The body is plastic and there’s a f/r lever in the middle under the seat if that helps determining the drive??

I did swap the wires for 4ga when I got it and put the bigger tires on.

KGSC - I believe that controller you reference is for a 48v.

What about one of the smaller Curtis controllers?

A couple things- is the FNR switch actually under the passenger side with a long rod connecting it to the handle? If so it’s a series drive. If it’s a silver metal disc with two micro switches it’s a DCS.

Also the Alltrax SR40xxx controllers are all compatible with 36 and 48v.

Yes. It’s got the metal rod. So drive series.

So any of the Alltrax “SR” models would work. Get a kit from Scotty at cartsunlimited.net.
