I still never had my golf cart fix but I still watch your videos and enjoy them maybe one day I’ll hit Lucky and fix it but I

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

Elton, by now your cart will need new batteries! I guess even if you never do fix it, at least i got to see you and watch some of your videos. Thank you my friend!

Hi Wayne great video. Looking to install a replacement motor on a 2011 regen series precedent…would these type of motors require my cart to have a lift kit installed. Currently mine doesn’t.

Great video Wayne! Question. Would you recommend upgrading anything else besides a controller if you upgrade the motor? Ex. Solenoid or thicker gauged battery cables? I’m trying to get the most juice out of the motor without spending up on a controller.

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

If you are not upgrading the controller to more amps, then you really don't need to upgrade anything else. The controller is where you get more amps.

[@ianharrell1034]

Thanks Wayne!

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

Sometimes it's cheaper to upgrade the controller than the motor.

[@RCCranger001]

Great video but I have the same problem as some others. I have disconnected the wires and removed the 4 bolts and the motor will turn but no amount of wiggling seems to make it move off the spline at all. I read your other response where you say to remove the entire axle and I understand what you're suggesting to do but I'm not sure what's involved to remove the axle. Do you remove the mounting bolts from the spring hangers and the shocks and then jack up the frame? Thanks in advance.

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

Yes, unfortunately bottom shock nut, and 2 nuts off each u bolt, and unhook brake cables from each rear wheel, drop the rear shakle bolts, and roll the entire assembly out the back. Yes you have to jack up the rear end.

[@RCCranger001]

Thanks.

Hello, great video. I wanted to know if you have any explanation of the electrical system of a Club Car Golf with 36 volt batteries and a model 5BC48JB764 engine. Among other questions I have, there is a switch on the forward and reverse lever that does not appear on the electrical diagram sent to me by the manufacturer and I want to know what it is used for. This is connected to the solenoid in its negative position.

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

Send me a email or text, telling me the year of the cart, the voltage, and if it has a vglide, pot box etc, and i can send you a wiring diagram.

[@881167c2]

@@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900 ok, thanks. What is your email?

[@bruceturner1572]

In videos, it appears to be an opening in bottom of transaxle; would that flood in and corrode armature shaft to transaxle shaft? Is the field portion of motor hooked onto the armature shaft? Remove ? the brush end of motor?

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

Look at my last comment about dropping the rear axle assembly on the tire and the motor should fall off

[@bruceturner1572]

Hi Wayne; Replacing motor; motor turns on shaft but can't get it off shaft??? Nearest golf cart repair is 100 mi away.

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

You need to remove the entire rear axle wheels and all with the motor on it still. Once you've got the axle out of the golf cart turn it on its end and drop the axle from about 2' off the ground drop it a couple times and the motor will fall off

[@hearsayhenderson2623]

Looking dapper

[@aaronbruggeman6196]

Wayne, does the new motor require the use of the 1/2 inch bolt? It appears to not have that same mounting bracket as the old motor

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

Don't need it. Club car stopped using that bolt, so don't worry if you do not have it.

[@thejoseboyz901]

Hey Wayne awesome video! I have a question I have a 1996 club car and I replaced the brushes in the motor. Somehow I deleted the pictures I took when I removed the motor and now I don’t remember which wires go where! This video was helpful but instead of a blue and orange wire I believe I have a white and orange along with the green and white…any ideas???

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

of course I have ideas. Since you failed to tell me the voltage of your ds, here are 2 options: a1. green a2. white s1. orange s2. blue a1. green a2. white f1 . blue f2 orange

[@nickdickson6788]

Hi Wayne great videos and fun to watch. Ive removed a club car precedent electric motor to find its rusted quite badly as been sat outside for several years. Ive manage to clean the worst off the plates inside windings, but need to get the commutator out of its bearing to inspect the brushes which are completely stuck. Any advice on how to remove it (one video on YT shows guy hitting the speed sensor end with 8Lb lump hammer) and is it straightforward to replace once removed

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

Nick, sorry for thus answer, but i wouldn't mess around with it. The time involved and the money you spend for parts, isnt worth it. You would be better off buying a used take off motor from a company and turn yours in as a core.

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

Honestly, I would buy a different motor, because the time, energy and frustration from trying to get it off, isn't worth it to me. However, I keep spraying it with rust removed and tapping with a small hammer to get the brushes free. The bearing you can try a press to press it off, I have also taken it to a auto parts store and they pressed the bearing in about 10 minutes .

[@elizabethrivera9960]

got a free club car 2007 presedent i have been restoring it. the motor wont come off. now mine you this is my only means of transportation. i found out the cart was under water. need to buy a new motor and maybe cut out the old unless you have another answer for me to remove the motor.

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

Make sure all the bolts are removed, including the 1/2" bolt on the very bottom. At that time the entire motor should spin. For sure way to remove it, is to remove the entire rear axle, with the motor and the 2 wheels still on it. Then turn that onto 1 side so 1 wheel is laying FLAT in the ground. Then lift that entire assembly up about 18 inches and drop it to the ground. Do that a few times and the motor will fall off.

Hi Wayne, I saw your OBC replacement for a 2005 DS Club Car. I have upgraded my OBC from version 1 to 5. I think I have it wired properly. The cart runs and shows 8 of 10 bars on the meter. Sadly charge doesn't switch into charging mode when plugged in! Do you have any suggestions? Thanks Waka

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

Sounds like the wiring. Are you sure you got the correct obc? If you wired it exactly as the old one, and the 3/8 amp fuse is good, check the charge receptacle. Also try your charger on someone else's cart and also try someone else's charger on your cart.

Will a precedent motor fit up in an order model ds that is being converted away from resistors. I can get a used controller, solenoid and motor from an 07 precedent cart, but cant figure out if it will fit up. I know I'll need other componentsand harness to complete the change

Hi my bolts was very rusted and all 4 broke! I did the two wrenchs… can i weld a bolt on them ? I can’t afford to replace motor

No, they are brass. If you cant afford another motor, just replace the brushes, its alot cheaper.

Hello Wayne, I have exactly the same problem as you on the video to get the engine out. my engine runs like yours after unscrewing the 4 screws. How did you do ? by tapping on it? or have you found another solution? thank you Bertrand

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

Don't pry on it. Get all screws out 4 or 5, get motor so it will turn. Then grab the end of motor and start wiggling it up and down. If that doesn't work, remove entire rear axle with the wheels still on it. Turn axle on the end, resting on 1 wheel. Put a blanket under it to lessen the fall, and pick entire axle up about 2 feet and drop it on the wheel. Motor should fall off then

No, it will come off. Leave it on, unhook the brake cables, undo the u bolts, and remove entire rear axle with the wheels on it. Then stand axle up on one tire, and pick up the entire assembly about 18" and drop it to the floor on the wheel, and it will fall off.

I have a 1991 club car and I need help to get the motor out what do I do just beet the hell out of it thanks

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

im assuming you have already removed all the bolts, and wires, and removed the main positive cable from your battery pack? Sometimes there is one 1/2" bolt on the outside bottom of the motor that is hard to see, make sure you got that one out. Try to rotate motor, and you can tap on the case, but don't hit it so hard that you dent it. Might have to keep spray ing some bolt loosened on it and letting it sit, then keep repeating this. Lastly, what will work for sure, is to remove the entire rear axle, tires and all. Then pick up the axle assembly and slam it on the floor a few times, slamming on 1 of the tires. Watch your feet, because the motor is going to fall off to the floor.

Hi Wayne. I work at a convention center and we got a club car precedent donated to us. We've had issues with the motor bucking randomly while driving, losing power when the accelrator is pressed all the way. Sometimes the rollaway alarm will sound Battery voltage is good its 4x 12v, solenoid was replaced, MCOR/accelerator tested good at 4.61vdc while pressed. If i brake the battery circuit and hook it back up it runs fine but after 30min of heavy use it acts up again. Also if its put on a charger it will act up immediately after. Im a maintenance tech and our mechanic left so ive been tasked with getting it operational. Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated.

Verify the solenoid is good, just because it clicks doesn't mean it's good.

@@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900 not really sure how, it has 51 volts on both sides of the solenoid, one side is red from batteries, the other side is yellow that y’s off with a smaller yellow wire to the red side of the solenoid and a bigger yellow wire to one leg of the controller that also from there y’s off with a bigger green wire to the A1 side of the motor. Hope that makes sense lol

It also has two small wires solid blue and blue with white strip that are also 51 volt so everything thing on the solenoid has 51volt

[@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900]

If you have a resistor on the solenoid, you need to remove it in order to check voltage. Check both sides for voltage while stepping on pedal and also without stepping on it. Then remove all wires from solenoid and check the big terminals for continuity.
