Re: 2007 Precedent not charging to full + speed issue
Don't waste money on a Speed code 5, Your controller works with a speed magnet (4 poles) and it gives you basically the same speed as the code 5 device.
Does Your cart have any Motor brake at all while driving and you take your foot off the brake? |

The charge needle was much happier when I took it for a spin but speed about the same. |

Re: 2007 Precedent not charging to full + speed issue
Further update:
Subsequent charges have knocked off shortly after charging (~ 1 hour) but I've had readings of 50.1 and 50.5 respectively. Feels more normal - is it? Is the consensus from experts to run this for a while I monitor the recharging time and voltage afterwards? Regarding speed. From evidence thus far, would it be the consensus of the experts that I need a replacement speed sensor? If so, do I want OEM or is another brand recommended? Also, once fixed, I'd like to invest in a speed magnet to get the most out of this current setup as I can. Again, what brand/type is recommended by those who have been there? Thanks again Guy |

Re: 2007 Precedent not charging to full + speed issue
I can't see well in the pics. The main negative battery cable needs to go through the hole in the middle of the OBC. That's the grey box below the Tow/Run switch.
If the cable doesn't go through there, the OBC can not determine the charge level of the pack, and it can not properly recharge. If that cable Does go through the hole, then the OBC has likely failed and is why the charge times are so short. Also take a look at the connection where the Main positive cable is hooked to the battery post. In the pic it looks like the Small Red 10ga wire (which comes from the charging receptacle) is Under the main cable. That smaller wire should be on TOP of the big cable. The Big cable always needs to go on the post first, and any small ones can go on after. And as Walter mentioned, the cable between batteries 2 and 3 (the black one that's about 10x longer than it needs to be) is looking mighty rough. Those ends are crispy looking like they've been corroded and possibly overheated/burned in the past. That cable at the very least needs to be replaced. It would probably be a good idea to replace all of the cables between the batteries. |

Re: 2007 Precedent not charging to full + speed issue
Ok, I am doing the rounds on our golf courses, but down in the south. If i come across a dead cart that needs its speed sensor removed, i will let you know LOL. dont count on it though, as so far I have managed to revive all the carts i have been to so far. All our fleets are precedents, so we may be in luck. Shame i dont have any spares in stock at the moment or i would have been happy to help.
If you were closer, i could have come and diagnosed you fault first hand. But Give Bradshaws a ring and ask for the parts department, i am pretty sure they are not trade only suppliers. |

Also, as you mentioned, I'm looking to change all the interconnect cables as mentioned by another poster. Thanks, Guy |
