golf trolley will not move

The golf trolley will not move or drive. Battery charged all lights working, can hear a clicking noise when moving speed switch. Any ideas. Thanks B. W.

————-

I have a clubber electric golf trolley. Both the battery and the motor are working. The lights on the handle display panel are working. But the trolley doesn’t move. What could be the problem and how to rectify?   BR, J.I.

 

The clicking noise from the controller unit usually means the controller unit (under the battery tray) is switching the power to drive the motor, but not always! So things to check. With the display working okay, and the speed numbers scrolling up and down see the following…

1. Check all the connections and connectors around the trolley from battery terminals, lead, and cable connectors to the trolley socket.

2. Next, check that the motor is working okay.  First, check the connection is secure then by the smell, in case it has burnt out. Any kind of low battery voltage should see the motor turn if it were to be connected straight to the motor terminals from a battery – see photo.

3. With the display working okay. Next would be the controller unit itself not working.

    Power caddy F3,After washing next round when turning controller it was very jumpy on start,only lasted 16 holes but I think mud retarded performance,I recharged battery but it now refuses to move when using controller although if I lift wheels up and kick them there is power but on a very consistent low state and goes off when dropped down.

    Ive ordered Ben Sayers axle pins today. Can I fit these without taking the axle off the trolley as in your video??

      Hi Will, Thanks for your order today. Yes the axle pins can be put in place without the need to remove the axle. I would make sure the trolley axle is supported underneath at the end so no stress is put on the motor or gearbox when installing these sprung pins. Hope this helps.
