EZGO TXT Series Cart "switch to nowhere"
I just bought a couple of EZGO TXT series carts to refurb from a hunting club. They work great, but are slow on any kind of hill. They are on 22" tires.
One has a very interesting modification that has been disabled, but I'm curious what purpose it originally served and if it would benefit me to enable it for its new life as a street cart here in Charleston SC or if I should remove it totally. The F/R box has a toggle switch. That switch seemed to at one point connect to the solenoid which has a jumper going across two of the posts. I assume this is what I have read about being an "overdrive switch" and somehow bypasses the voltage regulator on the controller? |

Re: EZGO TXT Series Cart "switch to nowhere"
Im a little confused looking at the pictures...the first pic of the solenoid does not have a jumper across it that is a diode which is supposed to be there...second pic appears to be the ground wire which should run to one side of the reverse buzzer(does that work) and last pic of the toggle switch is usually where I or someone would put a kill switch to the reed wire meaning you could flip that and someone couldn't steal the cart by jumping the key switch as no power would reach it until that switch is flipped... Not a for sure thing but first thoughts based on pics...

I am overthinking this I guess. I'm not familiar with this style of cart, so seeing the diode threw me. Call this case closed... |

No worries I learn something new with these things every day still and I've been working on them for about 15 years
