Re: Ezgo PDS Wasn't responding to peddle
Quote:
Installing tires taller than 18" changed the final drive ratio, thereby increasing the workload on the motor, controller, solenoid, cables, batteries and other parts of the drive system. You've recently replaced the batteries and cables, so they should be okay. The stock motor and mechanical parts of the drive train are fairly strong and can usually handle taller tires up to 22". That leaves the controller and solenoid as the weak links. If by "ezgo controller" you mean another stock PDS (Curtis 1206MX - 300A) controller, yes you can do it, but the new one will be just as overstressed as the old one and may not last very long. An Alltrax DCX400PDS will provide the amps needed to turn the tall tires and it doesn't limit the motor to a maximum of 4,400 RPM like a stock PDS controller does, so the top speed will increase also. The stock solenoid is only an 85A unit, so it needs to be upgraded also. Scottyb at Carts Unlimited sell controller/solenoid kits at a reasonable prices.

Re: Ezgo PDS Wasn't responding to peddle
JohnnieB,
Yea, I understand all of that. Just didn't want to dive into replacing/upgrading the controller. But looks like I'll have to. Time to start saving! |
