Default 2016 EZ GO Txt only goes 8mph

I have a 2016 ez go Txt that I have programmed to 14 mph with my handheld. I tried to program it to coastal and hills, but still goes 8mph. There was a speed sensor fail and I have since replaced it, but still goes 8 mph. The battery pack was reading 50v even know the Trojan batteries are 5 years old.

I am not getting any codes any longer since replacing the speed sensor.

Should be able to monitor it while driving and make sure that your throttle is getting to 100%. Also for grins change it to another mode and see if anything changes

So I checked all codes and no matter what I set it for, it still goes 8mph. Also after two different speed sensors I still get a speed sensor error. In monitoring the handheld, the speed stays at 0 when driving it.
I tried the reader on another cart and was able to see the speed when accelerating.
Would a controller issue give me a speed sensor error? I am going to run an OHM test on the speed sensor wires this weekend.

If it is not seeing the sensor it will do this. Check the magnet and make sure it is okay as well as checking the wires from the sensor to the controller.. May have bent a pin in the connector.

Ok so I put a new speed sensory on it and magnet but still get the speed sensor error. I did an ohm test to the controller and the wires are fine.
Controller bad?

Push the cart around, does it resist pushing? I think I it should. I say "I think" because we sell very few 48v txt's, so I dont exactly "know them like the back of my hand". Does it still show '0" for motor speed while driving?

Thank you for the information. It was the controller. It is working as it should after replacing the controller.
