'11 EZGO TXT starting issues
Hi everybody, glad I found this sub, I've found some helpful info through searches, but since it's gotten me only so far, I figured I'd ask.
In-laws have a 2011 EZGO TXT. They purchased maybe 2 years ago. It has developed an issue over time that it won't start, intermittently. So far, my FIL has replaced the 'solenoid', battery, starter/generator, and the battery cables. When I was there last, we also replaced the cable from the solenoid to the starter itself-I noted that the cables was getting warm, enough to start melting the rubber cover at the starter end,-so now all load bearing cables are replaced.
When the issue does happen, if you hold the go pedal for a few seconds, it will usually start, but this definitely contributes to the overheated cable. What are we missing? Neither of us are new to mechanical things, and I've been an automotive and industrial mechanic for my entire adult life. But I've never messed with carts. I'll attach a video and pictures that may or may not be helpful. It runs fine otherwise, just has a problem starting. We do feel it has improved, but it's still not as it should be.
