Puttering Cart

JessiJD · 10-14-2010, 04:18 PM

I have an electric EZGO that has been struggling to go forward and backs by going, then stalling, going, then stalling.

I have disconnected all the batteries, tested them, cleaned them, and retightened everything. I even disconnected the lights to make sure that there wasn't an electric drain. The cart ran fine for about 5 minutes going up and down hills, but then it started to 'putter', stall and then wouldn't go forward during the last hill (which wsn't very steep). I was able to back it up the hill, but it was still going, then stalling, going, then stalling. I tested the batteries after this short drive, and they were all still fully charged.

Does anyone have any other ideas what it could be????

Thanks!

since DCS carts are known for controller failure, I woudl say you have a slowly dying controller. When it gets hot it quits.
