Default Ds self adjusting brake problems

Hey everyone,
I've got a 2001 48 volt ds clubcar with self adjusting brakes that are over tightening. The brakes will not back off they just continually get tighter every time you brake. the pedal gives resistance and then will pop you can feel it give way in the brake and also hear it. the arms that move the self adjusters hop over the star adjuster. i've cleaned and greased everything replaced the brakes drums and self adjusters. I've tried slacking the cable tension up also. I am wondering if the spring that holds the arm down is weak and allowing it to hop over the adjuster or if an adjustment is out somewhere. The cart has a lift on it but the cables have plenty of slack.
Thanks
