Greetings all!
First post here but been lurking for some time. I was recently "given" a 1995 Club Car that "never worked quite right". I am not sure exactly what that means. There are no batteries in the cart. I did hook a single 12 volt battery up using instructions I found online and the motor/axle turned. However, it would only turn to a certain spot and then stop. I could force the axle to turn past that and it would turn again and then stop. I don't have any clue about the rest of the components.
I am trying to decide where to go from here. Part of me thinks I should just replace all of the components/batteries and have a functional cart for a few thousand dollars. The other part thinks I should replace one part at a time as I need to. However, I don't know what parts that will be without purchasing a set of batteries.
Is it worth it to look at this as a rolling chassis and just working through the issues? Any idea on why the axle only turns a partial revolution?
My goal is to put together a cart that my son and I can use on the course that is 1 mile from our house. We would store the cart at home and drive to and from. Much thanks in advance.
