2003? TXT won't move
I am new to this forum so please be patient! I just bought a TXT that has been sitting awhile and it does not work. It is the model with the shifter behind your feet. I put new batteries in it yesterday and a new ignition switch. Nothing happens when I press the accelerator, the selenoid doesn't even click. I figured that there should be power coming out of the wire that attaches to the charging mount and runs to the F/R switch, there is no power. I put power to that line. When I do and press the accelerator an LED light on the Alltrax controller blinks green 4 times and then changes color. Still no sound out of the selenoid. Any suggestions?????? I have never messed with an electric cart and I am trying to learn.

make sure the batteries are wired correctly IE - to + for im assuming 36 volts it sounds like you have one or 2 batteris backwards |

Re: 2003? TXT won't move
I am having problems posting pics from my phone. I am pretty sure that the batteries are wired correctly.

Re: 2003? TXT won't move
Below is the TXT Solenoid activation circuit... If you trace it out with a voltmeter you will find your problem..
TXT solenoid activation circuit Power starts on the White wire on the 36+ of the battery pack. Power travels to the charger receptacle, goes through a reed switch inside the receptacle and comes out on the red 12 gauge red wire. ( check for power here, 1st!) The red wire travels back through the loom to the Forward and reverse switch where it attaches to a micro. The other side of that micro has a blue wire attached that runs under the cart to the front and arrives at the keyswitch. The keyswitch then transfers power to a green wire which returns to the area of the Forward and Reverse switch. the power then goes through a 4 pin Molex connector and travels to the "pedal Box" (located under the floorboard of the car) where it goes through a micro and comes out on another red wire. That red wire comes back up to the Controller/F&R area where it once again goes through the 4 pin molex connector and continues on to the small post of the solenoid. |

Re: 2003? TXT won't move
Scottyb. Thank you so much. The red wire coming out of the charging receptacle is the one that has no power. I placed 36V to that wire and still nothing. I appreciate the rest of this info. Very helpful. I'll report back as to what I find.

Re: 2003? TXT won't move
My apologies for the double post. When I was typing I hit submit, immediately received a phonecall and hit submit after the call ended.

Re: 2003? TXT won't move
Another symptom. I noticed they had the ground wire off of the back-up alarm. When I put power to the small wire coming out of the charging receptacle and ground the horn. It is making noise, not real loud in forward and reverse.
