Precedent Motor Stall
 

Hi,
I've never had this problem before so I'm a little stumped! I have a 2007 club car precedent, full battery pack voltage, solenoid clicks but I keep getting a motor stall fault. The service manual says something stupid like "tell the customer not to stall the motor", which is not very helpful! All wiring looks intact, going to try jumpering the solenoid this am but wondered if anyone has any other thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Re: Precedent Motor Stall
 

Is the motor stall code happening while you drive it? Or is it in the fault history? Low voltage can cause it. Just because it's got plenty of power now doesn't mean it's not been low in the past. If it has, "LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE" should also be in the fault history. If so, I'd blame it on that. Otherwise I'd be tearing the motor apart to inspect the brushes and check everything else out while I'm in there. You could have a burnt spot on the armature. Also, check to make sure the brakes aren't dragging. If the IQ controller senses too much of a load it will automatically stall the motor to prevent overload and excess heat.

Hi Tahoe Dawg,
Thanks for the reply! I appreciate it! I did Change to motor out originally due to the motor stall fault code but it didn't make any difference. When I looked a little closer, I was also getting a "missing field" fault code along with the motor stall code. One of the fixes was to replace the controller and once I did that, everything came back to life! Thanks again for the advice!

Oh yeah... missing field is a common controller failure code

I have a similar problem, Cart was completly dead, even the Programmer would not light up when pluged in, replaced controller, programmer came to life, cart would move forward but not in reverse and gave a missing field fault, if I understand this correctly it's telling me one of my fields in the motor may be shot or possibly the F1/F2 wires are bad which took out the controller. Soooo...I dropped in another motor and same fault code comes up... could the old motor have taken out the new controller? Or am missing something here?

Did you happen to check continuity on the field wires?

I have this same issue with a cart. Figured it was controller and speed sensor due to the codes and now with the new controller it's doing the same thing cart tries to move and dies out I watched the batteries dip down from 49.2v all the way down to almost 44 and then motor stall fault. Could batteries be junk or motor is toast continuity test tested out on post on motor I am stuck on this one. No other codes now besides motor stall
