club car quits

[mikey]

Cart will run fine and suddenly quit. It can sit 5-10 minutes and then run fine again. Any ideas what causes this? I have checked connections and replaced forward/reverse switch.

Be nice to know what year and type of cart you have but just a guess I would say the controller is heating up it gets pretty warm in st george that in conjunction with a loose cable or a bad battery will cause more heat, feel controller for heat when this happens

cart is a 2001, 48 volt.

Ok the controller has an over temp limit and if reached will shut down. Check the controller large posts for melting, heat or discoloration and all battery and motor terminals. The motor also might have over temp limit switch feel all for heat keep me informed.

I have a 2008 48 volt that does the same thing but I have put new seleniod,refurbished controller, and mcor box and the batteries are good all good connection on the cable as well.
