Hi guys,
The Mrs. recently acquired a 1989 Club Care DS 36 volt cart. Batteries are less than a year old. It was running fine until yesterday. She went to go for a ride and it would barely move in reverse. When she switched to forward, it would run but a lot slower than usual. The batteries are fully charged and measure 6.39 volts or higher each. I am thinking it could be the v glide. I took the cover off the v glide and the contactor seems to be moving the as it should. The resistor coils all look to be in good condition. Is there a test I can perform on the V glide?
Thanks
