2000 Club Car Assistance (48volt)
Long story short a buddy picked up a good deal on a golf cart but it hasn’t been run in probably 6+ years! I told him I would try to help him with it so it is in my garage.
I pulled all the batteries out of it and topped them off with distilled water and charged them. We are going to replace them but we’re trying to atleast use them for the troubleshooting phase to see what else may be wrong. After charging each battery is showing right around 8.1 or 8.2 on my multimeter. The key didn’t seem to work right so for troubleshooting purposes I bypassed it by connecting the green and blue wires together. When I put the cart in Run mode and and select forward or reverse and press the pedal nothing happens. I know this is generic but where is the best place to start my troubleshooting. I put my multimeter on the main positive and main negative and am showing right at 48.0v. When I hook it up to both sides of the big solenoid terminal it is showing 47.9v Also I replaced the battery wires just because the old ones were in rough shape. One last question do these carts have two solenoids. I am seeing the main one and then one looks like another over by the OBC. |

That is a Regen II cart and is a real pain..... The solenoid you saw is your Dynamic Brake solenoid. It was discontinued in '02 when the IQ carts were released.
When you place it in reverse does the reverse buzzer sound? |

Looks like you may have some connection that are croded and may not be making good contact. I would start by unhooking batteries and then remove and cleaning all the wires small and large.

Re: 2000 Club Car Assistance (48volt)
I can definitely do that. All the Battery wires have been replaced but the ones going to the controller, solenoid, and all that good stuff could definitely use a cleaning!

Thanks for the prompt response! When I place it in reverse the buzzer does not sound. I hooked a battery to the buzzer just to verify it worked and it did sound then.

With switch On (or jumped in your position), in Fwd, and pedal depressed; Probe the 2 solenoid small posts and see if you are getting 48vdc? |

When I press the gas pedal and probe the solenoids big lugs I get 47.8v. However, when I probe the small posts I do not show any power. It just sits at 0. |

Re: 2000 Club Car Assistance (48volt)
Then you need to check the power at the Run/Tow switch and at the microswitch in your v-glide (Potentiometer). You will hear a click from the v-glide if it is actuating, but the power must run thru it.
Here is your drawing: |
