00:51 - 𝗤:01 - Cart speed reduced issue - I have a Club Car golf cart. Cart speed reduced to about half speed fully charge. Batteries only two yrs. Been told could be the speed sensor or MCOR. Wanted your opinion. Thanks in advance.
02:22 - 𝗤:02 - Cart batteries issue - I have a 2008 Club Car DS. It will run in small stints but stalls out and stops. Any way to test the solenoid vs Speed controller?
03:35 - 𝗤:03 - Cart tires issues - I bought an EZGO S4 lithium cart for my farm with 15" Paramount M/T tires. We use the cart in fields and trails, and I mean to tell you it is rough riding. I tried lowering the tire pressure and got some ride relief, but I'm thinking I need all-terrain balloon tires. Your thoughts?
05:09 - 𝗤:04 -Cart replacement controller issue - Can you provide any tips and/or instructions for installing a replacement controller? I've just purchased a Navitas TAC2 AC Motor Controller for my 2009 EZ-GO RXV Danahar, model #10-000880-02 (600A). Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated!
07:04 - 𝗤:05 - Cart stock shocks issue - I installed a 6" A-frame lift kit on my '97 Club Car DS. It still has stock shocks. Should I replace them or modify them since I installed the lift kit? Thanks!
09:14 - 𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀
11:13 - 𝗤:06 - Cart torque issue - Are parts available to increase torque as opposed to speed?
12:06 - 𝗤:07 - How to convert EZGO TXT cart to lithium - I have a 2016 EZGO TXT. We would like 1. to improve the very harsh ride and 2. to convert to lithium (if feasible). Is that possible with this cart? If not, where could we find a comfortable riding lithium cart? Thank you for your time!
14:37 - 𝗤:08 - Cart batteries issue - 6-volt batteries on 36-volt EZGO TXT cart, all had load test results 6-4. Is it time to replace the batteries?
16:55 - 𝗤:09 - Cart Trojan system is starting to weaken issue - My 6 x 8-volt Trojan system is starting to weaken according to the warning light. The performance hasn't changed, but the light comes on as I finish a round of golf. That never happened until recently. I have a watering system and my garage is heated and air-conditioned. The batteries are 22 months old, and I play two rounds a week. How can I tell if it's the batteries or the charger?
18:40 - 𝗤:10 - Cart ignition key issue - Is it OK to leave your ignition key in the on position when charging your electric golf cart?

Content 👍🏼, delivery 👍🏼, consistency 👍🏼, knowledge 👍🏼, patience 👍🏼, and the list goes on.
Thanks for tuning in on the regular, everyone in the Garage appreciates viewers like you!
Hey Tim, I just finished watching your tutorial (#76) and I have to tell you, you come across as very knowledgeable and easy to comprehend. I say this from 30+ years as a carpenter and cabinetmaker and 40+ years as an evangelist. Your explanation method and demeanor are spot on! Keep up the really good work (BTW, with Jesus as your savior, you would make a great preacher!). God speed. Billy (Romans 5:8)
Hey, Joe! Thanks for all the kind words and for joining us. Let us know any time we can help. Cheers!
I’ve got an early 2000s EZ-Go I’m having issues with intermittent power. You’ve got to do a random series of turning the key on and off before you can go. Then the power is intermittent, it will go very slow, then randomly speed up for a short time, before coming to a stop and doing it all over again.
Thanks for watching, Mike! The first thing to check here should be power. Getting a load test on those batteries would be our advice. Even 1 bad cell inside one battery can stop your cart or make for intermittent power supply. Let us know if you have more questions! Support@GolfCartGarage.com or (800) 401-2934
Can you talk about or show us your personal carts? Your cart types, set ups and or products used. Just want to see how the pros do it. Thanks Gearhead.
Sending this request over to the LIVE team and Tim. Stay tuned!
i work in a club car dealership. mcors, controllers, speed sensors, fnr switches...all day long lol
Pretty cool work if you can get it! Thanks for watching, John!
I just bought an E-Z-Go golf cart put in new batteries my cart is bucking when I first take off it is fine once I get rolling and has plenty of power but sometimes you press the accelerator you can hear the motor click but it does not move and when it does move it jerks hard
Thanks for watching, Larry! It sounds as though you may possibly have a potentiometer issue. Those vary depending on model and there may be some follow up questions. You can get an appt for a video call diagnosis here: www.golfcartgarage.com/gearheads-on-demand/

Hi, o.k. I purchased a 2009 club cart precedent. When I purchased it from pawn shop, I should have test drove it, but I didn't. when I got it home and drove it, it took off fast then it started to slow down to 6 mph. The pawn shop purchased the parts the speed sensor and this other sensor, I put on the speed sensor, the speed got up too 13 mph flat ground. When we put the other sensor on, hopefully that will give it a little more power.
Thanks for watching! 13mph is about right for stock equipment on an '09 Precedent. Let us know how things turn out!
@@GolfCartGarage 13 mph, is that all, wow. I thought at least 18 or 19. So what do I have to do if those other parts don't worm to speed it up?
You'll probably get to about 18-20mph with a lift and tires upgrade to a larger size, though that can sometimes rob a bit of torque. Beyond that, you can ask a local Club Car Dealer if they can program your system a bit higher, it may have been governed if it was used for a course. Past that, you're looking at powertrain upgrades. The basics are here: ruclips.net/video/ElhaSpdxIlc/видео.html&pp=ygUWZ29sZiBjYXJ0IGdhcmFnZSBzcGVlZA%3D%3D
@GolfCartGarage ok. I was going too send u a pic. It has a lift kit and bigger tires. But I'm going to put these other parts on and see what it does. 18mph is good enough for me. If it does that, im happy. Thks for the info.
Hi Tim, I have a 2014 club car precedent 48volt. The cart at full thottle starts off great then goes into limp mode @7mph. I changed out the speed sensor and it still does the same thing. I push the car and the buzzer sounds and it's a little difficult to push. Can it be the MCOR.
Thanks for watching, Al! Could be an issue with the potentiometer on that vehicle. We recommend a video call consult with our diagnosis team here: www.golfcartgarage.com/gearheads-on-demand/
or get in touch directly at Support@GolfCartGarage.com or (800) 401-2934.
Hi, I have a 2021 EZGO S4 lithium ion battery. Top speed is 19 mph, how can I increase speed? What do I need to replace or upgrade?? Thanks for the help.
Thanks for watching, Jason! 19 mph is pretty good for most stock carts, even with lithium. Check out our video on speed, here: ruclips.net/video/ElhaSpdxIlc/видео.html

2009 clubcar president,full charge.cart starts off then starts to jerk and slows down.
Thanks for watching, Jeffery! If it jerks and slows down, there may be a bad cell in one (or more) battery. We see this a lot. We recommend checking the batteries with a volt meter and then a load test. We have a walkthrough on that here: ruclips.net/video/NsUkLCTWSnQ/видео.html&pp=ygUeR29sZiBDYXJ0IEdhcmFnZSBwb3dlciB0ZXN0aW5n

What load tester do you recommend for a 48v six 8v system?
The tester at the link below, I would recommend to provide the most accurate assessment of the condition of a 36 or 48 volt battery pack. Most consumer level DIY techs use a volt meter test under load using alligator clips.
However, this one can be purchased by calling our sales department at (800) 401-2934

Just bought a 2004 club car. Batteries are good. Cart starts off fine and gets fast. But starting up a small grade, the cart will stop. Any thoughts?
Thanks for watching, Phillip. This points to a hidden bad battery cell, an MCOR issue, or sometimes overall torque. We recommend a free consult with our diagnostic team here: www.golfcartgarage.com/gearheads-on-demand/ or alternatively, reach our techs directly at Support@GolfCartGarage.com or (800) 401-2934
I have a 1995 Electric Ezgo 36v . Just had a soleoid, new batteries and cables put on. Now when I accelerate it takes off fast and jerks my head off. Do I need a new sensor?
Thanks for watching, Sandra! There could be an ITS issue, there. We'll have some follow up questions.

I have a 2013 48v ezgo rxv. Recently started lagging in speed for a little distance now it jumps when I put it it gear but won't go anywhere. Batteries are almost brand new. Any suggestions?
Thanks for watching, Sniper! This sounds as thought there may be an issue with the RXV motor brake or possibly a wiring or potentiometer issue. We recommend a free consult with our diagnostic techs here: www.golfcartgarage.com/gearheads-on-demand/ or get in touch directly at Support@GolfCartGarage.com or (800) 401-2934
Ok bud. Thanks a ton. I'll be at work for a couple of weeks but I'll get in touch with you when I get home
@@invisible_sniper did you figure out the issue? I have the same issue. Got sluggish on me, went to take off, and it inches forward for a sec then stops. Same thing in reverse. I had someone pull the motor apart and clean, changed the Mcor, and now I’m at a loss. Brand new batteries as well.
I have a 2011 ezgo was doing good n all of a sudden it stopped n won't do anything n when it stopped it made a terrible noise I thought the bottom fell out, any suggestions?

I just installed new batteries in my 2002 Club Car. It runs a little slower than I remember it as my other batteries were getting old. I’m thinking, after watching spied sensor videos that could be the issue. I’m having trouble finding a sensor for a 2002. I have a pic of numbers under dash, thinking it is a 2002.
Hello. I would be leaning more toward MCOR issue than speed sensor. Feel free to make an appointment using the following link so we can talk about it. www.golfcartgarage.com/gearheads-on-demand/
I have a precedent operating at 8mph unless i turn the key off and back on then the cart runs at 15mph? I tried a speed sensor, i'm assuming a controller?
Hello Chris. I am still leaning toward speed sensor on this one. Just remember a Club Car dealer could plug in their computer and read your fault codes to see if it is showing a speed sensor fault.
Hello, I have a 2003 DS club car.
My problem is that I accelerate and it doesn't go, it doesn't do anything and suddenly it starts.
All of the above with charged batteries.
Could be an intermittent MCOR. If your cart has a run/tow switch a Club Car dealer could read your fault codes also.
I have a s6 48v 6v batteries cart would not hold charge for the day so got battery replaced after replacement cart will not move and no back up alarm
Hello. Could be a few things. Most likely forgot a wire hook up somewhere. Always take pictures.
Buzzer not working when in reverse 1996ds club cart
Usually, people ask how to turn the buzzer off! :-) There may be a wire that came loose or a possible malfunction to the buzzer itself on a nearly 30 year old cart. You can get an appointment for a video call diagnosis here: www.golfcartgarage.com/gearheads-on-demand/

when I press pedal all way it stalls power goes off soon as disconnect power and connect it power comes back ,When I run slow now problem
Thanks for watching, Gilbert! Sounds like you may have an issue with your cart's potentiometer that sends signals to the controller. Or with older, series carts, that can be a bad coil or V-Glide. Get in touch if we can help more! Support@GolfCartGarage.com or (800) 401-2934
Hey I have a ds cart was towed and change the motor now cart acting up do I have too change controller
Thanks for watching, D'ashron! A new controller might be needed, but there are other failures that can affect a controller. We recommend a free consult with our diagnostic team, here: www.golfcartgarage.com/gearheads-on-demand/

What is the M terminal on ezgo txt pds.?and where is it ?
The "M" terminal on an EZGO TXT PDS is a connection point for the motor on the vehicle. It is located on the controller, which is typically found under the seat of the golf cart.
The "M" terminal is specifically used for the motor field winding, which is responsible for creating the magnetic field needed for the motor to operate. This terminal is usually connected to a wire that goes to the motor's field winding, and it is essential for the motor to function properly.
It's worth noting that the location of the "M" terminal can vary depending on the specific model and year of the EZGO TXT PDS. If you are unsure about the location of the "M" terminal on your golf cart, it is recommended that you consult the manufacturer's manual or seek assistance from a qualified technician.

I have a 2003 electric club car 48 volt with a GE motor that I need to replace the speed sensor. With the wheel well off it is easy to replace the plastic cap, and that fixed it for a few months. Do I have to take the motor apart to replace the magnet? And will that fix it?
This was an intermittent stopping issue, so I replaced the MCOR and that didn't fix it. I replaced solenoid also. The speed sensor fixed it totally for a few months until now the speed is intermittent. I've checked batteries but these Trojan batteries are 5 yrs. old. thank you, Chris
Hello. If batteries are 5 years old then I would start there. There could be an issue with just one cell.
Thank you. I had checked the batteries, each individually and getting around 8.5 on all 6. My next step will be to change the bearing that came with the speed sensor. I just hope I can get to the bearing through the wheel well without taking the GE motor out, which I think might be a nightmare.
Thank you for all the good advice you give! Christy @@GolfCartGarage
My Ezgo electric golf cart keeps jerking as soon as I turn the key it takes off and sometimes it won’t move
Welcome to the garage. An EZ-GO uses an "inductive throttle sensor" or ITS. On TXT's it is located under the floormat. Your described symptoms sound like it could be an ITS issue.
I have a1994cub car with the resistor anything I can do to make it go uphill with out losing power
Thanks for watching, Kevin! Only thing you can do with that one is make sure the V-Glide is going to the last contact, tires aired up, and batteries are good. But, if you need more help, you can reach our techs at Support@GolfCartGarage.com or (800) 401-2934.
Can I have ask you something about excel rear axle Bering and what is the most number of the Bering by the EZGO Rtx
Thanks for watching, Elmer! We'll need some info, including your cart serial. Please get in touch directly at Support@GolfCartGarage.com or (800) 401-2934
WHERE CAN I GET A SPEED SENSOR FOR 48V 2004 YAMAHA WITH GE MOTOR
That should be something we can help with! The easiest way to get help with that would be to email Support@GolfCartGarage.com with your cart serial number and a photo of your current sensor if possible. You can also order by phone at (800) 401-2934
I have a 1995 club car when I bearly touch the pedal it takes off in high gear what
Thanks for watching, Daniel! This could be an issue with the potentiometer on your cart stuck in a WOT (wide open throttle) setting. A chat with a tech might get closer to the issue. Try a free appointment with our video call diagnosis team! www.golfcartgarage.com/gearheads-on-demand/
or get in touch directly at Support@GolfCartGarage.com or (800) 401-2934
I have a 97 Club Car DS 48v. My batteries are perfect and voltage does not drop out much going up hills. The cart is fast on the flats, but on the hills crawls up, not sure what that could be?
Thanks for watching, Raymond! Voltage does not drop out much going uphills? How much? Could also be something else getting hot like controller or F&R assembly.. something is robbing torque somewhere. If you have more questions or need help, just get in touch! Support@GolfCartGarage.com or (800) 401-2934
Speed sensor on ark off car don't have a boat so not sure how to get it out 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️😮💨 It starts off fine then slows down not batteries went ahead and changed them all 2 new ones.. Can't for the life of me find a video with the same one as mine.. It's a Ezgo cart DS model 2007 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️😞
Thanks for watching, Kristian! This sounds like a speed sensor issue, maybe... but there's some conflicting info here. For instance, DS is a Club Car model, not an EZGO. You might want to see a pro.
