Re: New to RXV - Any Good Info Out There?
Pinball
Let me guess at key problem.....you must turn key on and off multiple times to get cart to run. Am I correct? |

Re: New to RXV - Any Good Info Out There?
You are correct. Been that way since I bought it used in 2011. I put new batteries, new brake(now removed), new motor, new solenoid, new battery cables, new key switch and problem never went away. Almost bought new controller but said enough is enough and decided to just live with it.

Re: New to RXV - Any Good Info Out There?
HiTech, whats your solution to this key issue, once the key switch has been replaced and that still doesn't help this problem?

Re: New to RXV - Any Good Info Out There?
I'd be interested in this too - mine intermittently does this. Usually corrects after a couple of on-off cycles, but one time it didn't. I reached under the seat and flipped the tow switch on and off and then it started right up - not sure if that had anything to do with it, but it worked that time.

Mine does this as well. Would love to know the fix.

Re: New to RXV - Any Good Info Out There?
One solution to the RXV key switch struggle is to slow down your turning of the key. Give the cart a second to recognize each change of key position. Sounds stupid but once I showed this to an elderly client he was thrilled with the result. Went around showing all his elderly pals.

Also, keep feet off the pedalS, and make sure any floor mat is nowhere near the pedals

Re: New to RXV - Any Good Info Out There?
One other thing I noticed on the RXV is that dirt and debris get stuck behind the gas pedal assembly and won't allow the gas pedal to come all the way back. I believe there is a microswitch that is engaged when the pedal is all the way back so if there is dirt and debris in there this won't happen. You can try reaching down and pulling the gas pedal back to see if the key works and disengages the brake. If it works, then take a compressed air nozzle, put it down behind the brake and blow all the debris out. This has worked on several different carts.

I just live with my issue. Never have I been stranded and never has it taken more than 10 key turns to get engaged and move. The average is 2 to 3 turns. On a good day, it works the first time. Weather does not affect it. Acts same way middle of cold Michigan winter or 6 months later during a hot Michigan summer! |
