I am 100% certain I do not have a DCS but I was confused between the descriptions of PDS and TXT48. BTW Scottyb I ordered a meter and plate today. I will be upgrading cables and controller next.

To say EZGO nomenclature is confusing is an understatement. I pity the golf cart archaeologists of the future trying to catalog all the variants.

The DCS, PDS, PDS-2 and TCT (aka TXT48 ) all have SepEx (Separate Excited) motors and different model Curtis controllers.
DCS = 1206SX (1995 - 1999) 36V
PDS = 1206MX (2000 - 2009) 36V
PDS-2 = 1264 (?) 48V
TCT = 1206HB (2010-present) 48V

'07 DS IQ - 58.8v Lithium Pack, Alltrax XCT500a, 400a Solenoid, 6" Lift, 10" x 22" AT's I got the following:

Admiral A2 - 33 (33.5) mph
FSIP Speed - 35 mph
PQ Executioner - 38 mph

The Field Map was changed for each motor and all testing was on the same day, same cart, same parameters. I did not have a D&D so I did not get to test it, but will soon.

Note- This is a lithium pack that was topped at 58.4 prior to each test, is ~220 pounds lighter then a FLA battery cart and was tweaked to the max for testing.

Finally getting around to posting some pics of my 2PG rebuild. It's a work in progress but should be completed fairly soon.



The engine is out of an '88 Marathon that I got for $100 as a package deal. He said it ran when parked 3 years ago.

I did get it to fire up but not without alot of noise. When I removed the exhaust and looked up into the cylinder, this is what I found.





Boy, I guess it finally died right in the place where he parked it.



Below is the home made eloctrolysis setup for cleaning the cylinder before boring.




Here's the patient that needs the bath.





Here's the bubbling cauldron of magic that will clean all but the most stubborn buildup on the cylinder.

All of section M is very informative. Page M-2 is where the torque specs are.

Your state of charge should not drop below 50% (and not even that far if possible). I'm told that this equates to 48.41V at rest and 42V under load.

If you have a meter that can monitor the voltage under load, stay above 42V while driving (well above if possible).

These tables have been gleaned from other members. The first one is generic while the second one is specifically for US Battery.

It seems like the PB-16 is a $200 solution for a $0.20 problem... and You still need a switch to "manually" reduce the speed.

You can use a relay and a simple resistor to reduce the speed.

I am assuming you have a 0-5kΩ throttle.

The 5.1kΩ resistor will give you approximately 50% speed.

The 9.1kΩ resistor will give you approximately 65% speed.

You can connect the relay coil wires on the left of the diagram directly to the side of your reversing contactor that gets powered in reverse.

I Just listed all possible sources that can be used for the +36v activation signal.

Basically when the relay is powered it adds another resistor in parallel with your throttle signal and limits how high that signal can get.

It happens automatically when You are in reverse and it works with your existing PB-6.
