Just did this to my cart that had the slow problem....worked like a charm. The only thing I did different was I connected the two heavy white wires together on one of the screws on the solenoid thereby bypassing the solenoid (then you don't have to do anything to the wires on the motor)and didn't bother disconnecting the speed sensor...this will allow me to easily re- connect if I have to if I decide to buy the parts later to put it back into the original configuration.... Thanks for the video . Shaun

My resistor was getting so hot and glowing like I had an orange light under my cart on even small hills. Everyone one else on the web says bad batteries but I have new Trojans. This took about 5 min and worked like a charm. I was going to replace the solenoid, didn’t know I could bypass it. You saved me a lot of time and money. Great fix! Thank you!

Thank you so much for the video, I was so lost on what to try next until I tried your fix!! I unhook the small wires and tape them off and just bolted the two larger white wires together and tape them up in case I wanted to order a replacement solenoid in the future and wow what a difference it made!!! Car has so much power now and will fly up hills

Thank you Mike, I have been having this issue on my 98 DS, and I have been combing internet for advice on a resolution. Bought new batteries, which we needed anyway, and had a solenoid and speed sensor in my Amazon cart when I read this. I did it exactly as you describe in video and it worked like a charm. I did "save for later" the parts on Amazon, but it seems like this will resolve several issues I have been having and they won't be needed. Thanks again sir!

I'm not sure , you might not even have a controller computer, it might just be solenoid powered to motor , you might need to do some more research , if yours is where you stomp the pedal and the wheels spin full blast I'm pretty sure you do not have a controller/computer

It's just called a brake solenoid , it's for when every time you release the gas pedal it electrically brakes your motor for that nice safe cruise on a golf course, it's unneeded for 98 percent of people

Won't this overheat the electric motor. Because it's meant to take the heat off the motor that's why it doesn't throw 12v to the motor the motor only reserves about 8-9 volts.
@ohger1

My guess is that it's meant to reduce shock to the motor: the motor runs with reduced voltage for a second or so through the resistor coil and then the solenoid engages effectively shorts out the coil.

No this has nothing to do with protecting the motor . .it probably strains it more, this is a brake solenoid so when your on the golf course and you let off the gas the solenoid kicks in and it slows the motor down electricaly like your mashing the brake . .this is a safety option feature for the best safety ride on the golf course

Hey yeah it's still good to go , that brake solenoid is to slow it down when you let off the gas pedal you don't need that brake solenoid, you can just unhook the big white wire on solenoid and bolt it over to the big one next to it on the solenoid . .3 second fix compared to removing the extra white wire like I did
