How do i increase the speed of an electric golf cart?

check speed controller

Most electric golf carts run on a max speed of 12MPH. It all depends on the voltage. The higher the voltage, the faster the speed. Most electric carts out there run on either a 36 or 48 volt operating system and can only last about 20-25 miles per each charge.

There are some new carts coming to market that are able to travel faster and possibly on less energy and can go up to 19 MPH. Many of the latest models are operated by computers and have quite a few high quality and unique components compared to older trolleys and carts. If you want or need something faster, they are worth look into.

1. You did the right thing, you almost always start with the batteries first. However, it may be the controller. The speed of an electric golf cart is determined by the speed controller. Problems with this part may be trickier to diagnose and repair. This YouTube video shows you how to replace one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azWblmoGAJs I hope this helps you out! Rhonda

If you are getting full voltage to the motor and that is the best you can do, then you have no recourse other than to change the motor.

Depends on how cold it's getting outside. Cold weather is ******* a battery. Try load testing your batteries. That "clicking" noise makes me believe that it's trying to start, but it's not pulling enough amps. Considering everything that you've already replaced, I would start there. Assuming you've already made certain all of your connections are good. Also, make sure the ground wire for your electrical system is good. Not loose, corroded, etc...
You can even call the local golf course and ask to speak to the golf cart mechanic. I would get several calls a week from drivers when I worked as a diesel mechanic.

What kind of cart is this and what year and model?
Ezgo, Club Car?

Not sure exactly what you mean. A model number will help so I might look at wiring diagram. Is the pedal a variable speed or maybe about 4 different set speeds? The model number will tell me. First thing to check is the battery terminals for good connection with cables and and make sure cables are clean.
