Hello!
I bought a 99 48V club car (regen 2 I believe) that has a major problem. I got a good deal on it so hopefully it will not cost too much to repair.
They were driving it and it just stopped moving. Then restarted for just enough to get it back to their camper. It hasn't moved under it's own power since.
I have been searching here for an answer. So far I have checked each battery for power Each one has just a little bit over 8.5V with all of them disconnected. At the solenoid it has about 53ish volts. I checked all the cables and one will need replaced but functional now.
What I hear happen is when I turn the switch from tow to run some contactor cycles "tick tock.....tick tock" and thats it. When the throttle is pushed it gives that sound one more time but does not move. when switched into reverse the back up beeper sounds.
With the digital volt meter attached the voltage moves some but does not stay when making that noise.
While I was checking voltage everything is "hot" on the motor wires. Forward, regin side. everything.
The solenoid the battery is attached to does not engage ever but there is power on both sides. So I tried to jumper across the load side of the solenoid with jumper cable clamps. Thats when the large under some kind of a load sparks came in!
So if the controller wasn't already smoked I am sure it did not appreciate that much!
I checked the switches and they all seem to work. I looked at the throttle control and checked the switches but did not know what to do in there.
I do not know what to try now.
The previous owner took it to an "authorized club car" repair shop and they put a new motor on it. Did not work. Then they tried an controller. did not work and they claim that the old motor that they put back on smoked there new controller. All I think they did was throw parts at it and when it did not run they did!
