Just tried this today on a friend’s club car DS. Car just was really slow. Worked like a charm ! We were thinking new controller, new motor , instead fixed it with a piece of fuel line , Thanks !
I actually jammed some plastic to take up the gap but will be using the fuel line. Got a brand new cart would only go 11mph. Did this trick and now at 19
It's been a while but I worked as a tech at a cart place for a bit some years ago. Carts would come in all the time with this kind of problem. Look around in the menus of the scanner, some where in there in them is a section that let's you adjust throttle position and percentage. I wish I could elaborate, but like I said, it's been some years. I'm a curious person so I had to play with everything I could find in the magic box 😆
I repair a fleet of carts. If it's slow like that, I shove a penny in the gap from above as a quick test, and if it fixes it, I use a metal bushing like your method.
No programmer for me. I have an AA 01 series motor DS. So I used a an ohm meter to measure the MCOR OHMs (Green & Yellow wire at the Controller) actual reading is 5.95K ohm at rest to 1.23 K ohm with floored Go peddle for maximum rpm. I'll try this trick to get to 0 ohm at floored Go peddle. At this point I am getting max 19 MPH with 20.5" tires. There is an aftermarket adjustable wire wound MCOR, that would probably tune the play in peddle shaft. How about a new shaft?
Absolutely that would work! This video is just in case you don’t have parts available at the moment. But thanks for that awesome info, I’m sure others will find it useful!
