Dec 09, 2013  Hi, I have just acquired a 1998 EZGO Electric Series Cart. Unfortunately,it does not run. I am trying to diagnose the problem and would really like to. Amazon.com: EZGO 284-2000 Service Parts Manual For Gas TXT Golf Car: Golf Carts: Garden & Outdoor.

Thank you all for the responses. They were very much appreciated. I will printout the information to have as reference when I am working on the cart. As to the question, concerning voltage and the solenoid, here is the status. I have 36.2 volts from the batteries. download 1975 Johnson 115 Outboard Motor Manual.

They said it worked fine when they last used it about a year ago. Since that time, it has sat in their open carport unused. I charged the batteries and then found there was no current through the ignition switch. That proved to be a bad connection on the key switch. I repaired the connection and the cart immediately ran, but then made a clunk and stopped after only about 25 feet. Miller Furnace Repair Manual download more. The cart was in reverse when it stopped. I started trying to find the problem, but I did not have a manual to use at that time.

I knew solenoids take a real beating and are not an expensive item, so as an attempt to repair the cart, I replaced the solenoid. That did not fix the problem. Where I am now is the solenoid clicks when I put the cart in either forward or reverse and again when I press the accelerator down about 1/3 to 1/2 pedal. I have done the simple things I could verify with my VOM.

As example, I verified reed switch works in charger receptacle, verified micro switch in pedal box worked, I verified readings between motor terminals with all wires disconnected (I found a location that stated which terminals should have continuity between them and which should not). If I have done these things correctly, I think I am down to the problem is either the controller or the FNR switch. I of course am afraid it is the controller, but I did not understand what would have killed it that fast, when I moved the cart. If that is the problem, perhaps it had condensation inside of it that caused an arc when voltage was applied. It is an EZGO controller and I have attempted to open it to look inside, but can find no way to remove the cover - short of getting a very big hammer. Anyway, that is where I am with the diagnostics. I am new to repairing electric carts and would greatly appreciate any guidance I can receive.
