My Club Car Precedent squeals
I have a 2006 Club Car Precedent with the 4 - 12 volt battery configuration. My problem is when its cold outside my cart squeals when going full speed. If I slow down it stops, if I hit a bump it will stop for a second but then comes back. It almost sounds like a belt but from what I can see there is no belt in the drive train just gears, so I am thinking it is possibly a bearing. During the summer (hot weather) everything is fine. I have changed the rear end fluid thinking that was it but no change.
Any help or advice on where to start looking would be appreciated. Thanks, Eric |

Re: My Club Car Precedent squeals
If you think it's coming from the transaxle have you noticed any leaks in that area or notice if it's hot to the touch after a long ride? May need to drain and refill the gear oil.

Re: My Club Car Precedent squeals
Since it does it when it is cold and sometimes quits when hitting a bump, I would be prone to believe it was a rubber joint, seal, or bushing. Try getting some high quality lubricating spray (more than WD-40) and spray the spring hangers, bushings, grommets, etc. and see if that helps.

Re: My Club Car Precedent squeals
It's the brushes in the motor. I'm guessing it's a GE motor as they are more prone to this issue than the AMD/ADC versions. When the brushes get worn, they get shorter and they lose tension, when they lose tension, they sing.
