New forward/reverse switch sparking and burning
Hello, I'm rebuilding a 1995 Club Car DS 36-volt. I've hooked all he electrical back up and the new forward/reverse switch is sparking badly when I put it in the Forward position. I even saw flames briefly. Reverse seems to be fine - hear the buzzer and the cart moves just fine. Also noticed that it happens even with the key in the OFF position.
The cart as a new Solenoid and Front/rear controller. The charging port and controller are original. I suppose I could have hooked something up incorrectly, but I've been over the wiring diagram several times. Any idea what could cause this? Bad key switch maybe? Needless to say, I've unhooked the batteries for the time being. Thanks. |

Read through this thread > http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/elect...-movement.html
There are some diagrams you can check your wiring against. |

Re: New forward/reverse switch sparking and burning
I have the diagram from the Service Manual. I've checked several times. I'm just wondering if there is anything besides the wiring that would cause that.

Re: New forward/reverse switch sparking and burning
I was under the impression that the vglide started in 88 and a half model year.....

Re: New forward/reverse switch sparking and burning
Most all GC model year changes are made mid-year... Don't ask me why
