Welcome to the forum...

Try diagnostic mode first and let us know what code(s) you get. Is anything like cables, controller or solenoid getting hot when the cart slows down?

Ok, I do see it (round magnet according to EZGO website like $40 bucks). I hate to seem ignorant, but does it just pull out, or do i pull the end cap of the motor off? does the wiring go to the controller area? I've been a fireman for 20 years and thats about all i do know about...sorry! william

There's 2 snap rings and a screw. Remove the first snap ring and the sensor will pull out. Then remove the second snap ring and screw and you can remove the magnet. There should be a wire connector under the cart for the wires coming out of the sensor. Check that connector first and make sure you have good connections there. If the connections are good replace the speed sensor.

Got the new speed sensor in....works great. Thanks to all that replied. I tried asking on another site called Buggies Unlimited, and never did get any help. I really appreciate it.
