97 CC DS - not going, controller bad? others?

billyvray · 07-15-2022, 07:07 AM

The controller I have is not meant for larger tires or lifts (which the cart has.....). But. It has run for years like this. Maybe it's had enough?
I found a trouble light guide. I have not noticed the unit flashing any error codes, but I'll try to observe it more carefully.

I have been in touch with a tech guy at D&D. I'll ask if there's a way for me to connect to it.

Download the Alltrax Toolkit onto your laptop. Connect it to the Alltrax controller with a printer cable. You will be able to see and verify operation of all of the controller inputs.

That only works if you have an Alltrax controller.

He does. Alltrax makes the one sold by D&D.

Got it! Thanks for explaining. I took a look at the D&D site and saw all the Alltrax they have listed in their packages.

True, but the version I have is non-programmable. It is meant to be a stock replacement. I'm thinking this could be an issue as this cart was lifted and has bigger tires, and a faster motor. It really should have a heavier controller, but has ran well so far.
i'm not seeing any trouble lights out of it yet.

Yes that could be a problem. Communication is also a problem. Post the model number of the control you have so people trying to help will know what you know.

I suspect he has a NCX type control which should never be paired with an aftermarket motor.

I found an error code. The controller blinks a red LED 3 times - the sheet says this is "HPD. Throttle hasn't gone to zero during this power on cycle".

I"m not sure but I'm guessing it's referencing a potential issue with the V-glide? I'm asking D&D also....

It's an NPX4844. getting an HPD (High Pedal Disable - throttle hasn't gone to zero ) error.

Anyone have thoughts on the HPD issue? microswitch inside the V-glide?
