just got a 2007 yamaha g29 ( I guess also called a drive?) and have used it about 5 times - no problems.
today when I took it out I went about one mile and it seemed slow ( or losing power) . I stopped and when I tired to move it just lunged forward and stopped. I would not do anything. I flipped into reverse and the backup alarm did not come on. After "messing with the wires ( checked to see if anything was loose ) I got bak on and it went, albeit slow. I again stopped and it did the same thing ( ie no go). Towed it home . took the rear panel off and did a better inspection for loose wires or bad connections - none found. I checked the battery voltage and it was 45 volts. I flipped the tow/drive switch and the think powered up. went for a drive, it seemed slow, and then after stopping it was no go again. I flipped the tow/drive switch again and it would power up but just lunge forward and "die". after doing that 3 times ( flipping the switch) I was able to drive it the rest of the way home ( very slow). I checked voltage again and it showed 43.8 volts.
any ideas?? I am desperate. this is a birthtday present for my disabled son.
I appreciate any and all help or suggestions!!!
