Just finished an 8" lift on my 2006 48V Club Car DS and went to take it for a test drive and have no power. Forward just has a click while reverse has the buzz and a click but no movement. The guy I bought it from said he didn't know how old the batteries were but he had had it two years without any problems. I didn't remove any electrical connections or change anything other than the lift kit. The only thing I can think is that a wire got pulled loose while I was fighting with the rearend while installing the lift block and springs. The top heavy axle spun a couple of times and "tensed" up the motor wires. I quickly looked under it tonight but didn't see any obvious signs of something being disconnected.It sat unplugged for a week while I was waiting on new hubs to come in so I am thinking maybe the batteries just need a charge overnight?? Where do I start troubleshooting? Some threads with similar issues say it could be the controller, but I'm no mechanic ( or electrician) so I don't know what the controller even does. What voltage should I be getting coming out of the series of batteries? Each battery? What should I check first? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
I should add that prior to the lift install the cart ran great with plenty of power and is in really great condition. I hadn't driven for much more than about 10 minutes and charged it every night prior to it sitting on jack stands for a week.
