Weird issue on TXT
I replaced the batteries on my 12 TXT. Everything worked fine for 3 days. I went to wire up a voltage meter today and it worked when I tested it to the battery. When I tested the wires on the back of the switch, the white wire was hot. I aires in the positive side of the meter to that wire and then ran the negative side straight to the negative battery terminal. When to test it and nothing. I put everything back the way it was and went to go for a ride and now I have no power at all. I went to check the voltage across the batteries and it threw sparks. Any ideas? It’s almost like the cart reversed polarity.

Re: Weird issue on TXT
White should have pack + voltage whenever the run tow switch is in run. White/yellow stripe will have voltage when the switch is turned on. Does the reverse buzzer work?

Re: Weird issue on TXT
Are you sure you aren't the one who reversed the cart polarity? If you did, bend over & pull out your wallet, it's about to get bad. The cart wont tolerate it, not even once, not for a second.

Re: Weird issue on TXT
How would I have reversed the polarity if all did was install a battery gauge.

Re: Weird issue on TXT
Update.... I fed did all of the cables connecting the batteries and the arcing stopped. I’m at 38.4 volts across the bank. I have 38.4 volts on the positive side of the solenoid and 36.4 volts on the controller side of the solenoid. The solenoid does not click when i press the pedal.
When i check the voltage at the key switch they are both 0. Any ideas? |

Re: Weird issue on TXT
Check voltage at the run/tow switch. If it has voltage on both sides you fried a wire somewhere. I haven’t worked on the 48txt much so don’t remember if it has a fuse anywhere. I have attached a diagram
