INTRODUCTION
This manual has been written by Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Corporation of America for use by
Authorized Yamaha dealers and their qualified mechanics. It is not possible to put an entire mechan­
ic's education into a manual, so it is assumed that persons using this book to perform maintenance
and repairs on Yamaha golf cars have a basic understanding of the mechanical concepts and proce­
dures inherent to these products. Without such knowledge, attempted repairs or service to this golf
car may render it unfit to use and/or unsafe.

Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Corporation of America is continually striving to further improve all
models manufactured by the company. Modifications are therefore inevitable and will, where applic­
able, appear in future editions of this manual.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
A WARNING
Follow these safety precautions and exercise
caution when performing service work to pre­
vent serious accidents.

PREPARE FOR EMERGENCIES


Be prepared for possible injury or fire. Keep the
following items handy:
• First aid kit
• Fire extinguisher
• Emergency phone numbers

HANDLE FUEL SAFELY


Use care when handling fuel- it is highly flam­
mable. Do not smoke or have open flames or
sparks nearby when handling fuel.

Always clean up spilled fuel and dispose of


cleaning materials properly.

HANDLE BATTERIES SAFELY


Batteries produce explosive gases. Keep sparks
and flames away from batteries. Check battery
electrolyte level using a flashlight.

Never check battery state of charge by connect­


ing the battery posts with a conductor. Use a
voltmeter or hydrometer. Always disconnect
the negative (-)cable first and connect it last.

Do not charge a battery if the battery is frozen.


Allow the battery to warm first.

Always charge batteries in a well venti lated


area to preve~t the build-up of explosive hydro­
gen gas which is created when batteries are
being charged.

Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid and is


poisonous and highly caustic. Avoid contact
with skin, eyes, or clothing. If electrolyte con­
tacts the eyes, flush with water for 15 minutes
and get prompt medical attention.

GENERAL INFORMATION
WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
I~EF"b 14'(;1.,I
Many permanent injuries could be prevented by
wearing appropriate safety equipment during
work. Whenever applicable, put on the follow­
ing:

• Safety glasses with side shields or goggles


when performing work like grinding, chisel­
ing, spraying or any other activity that could
result in an object or chemical striking the
eye
• Earmuffs or earplugs when performing loud
work that could harm hearing
• Safety shoes when working with heavy
objects that could be dropped
• Respiratory protection when performing
work involving dust, vapors, or gases that
can cause respiratory problems

Avoid wearing loose clothing and jewelry which


could become caught in moving parts causing
injury.

KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN


Properly ventilate work area to prevent build-up
of dangerous gases and keep the oxygen level
above OHSA's 19.5 percent minimum level.

Keep shop floor clean and dry to prevent acci­


dents due to slips.

BATTERY INSPECTION
A WARNING
Battery electrolyte is dangerous; it contains sul­
furic acid and is therefore poisonous and highly
caustic.
Always follow these precautionary measures:
• Avoid bodily contact with electrolyte as it can
cause severe burns or permanent eye injury.
Y-144
• Wear protective eye gear when handling or
working near batteries.
Antidote (EXTERNAL):
• SKIN - flush with water.
• EYES - flush with water for 15 minutes and
get immediate medical attention.
Antidote (INTERNAL):
• Drink large quantities of water or milk, follow
with milk of magnesia, beaten egg, or veg­
etable oil. Get immediate medical attention.
Batteries also generate explosive hydrogen gas.
Therefore you should always follow these pre­
cautionary measures:
• Charge batteries in a well-ventilated area.
• Keep batteries away from fire, sparks, or open
flames (e.g., welding equipment, lighted ciga­
rettes, etc.)
• DO NOT SMOKE when charging or handling
batteries.
KEEP BATTERIES AND ELECTROLYTE OUT OF
REACH OF CHILDREN.

1. Inspect:
• Battery case
Cracks/Damage- Replace.
• Battery hold-down bracket
Loose -Tighten.
• Dirty - Clean with wire brush or solution of
baking soda and water.
Poor connection - Correct.

NOTE:-------------------------
After cleaning the terminals, apply grease lightly
to the terminal posts.

Replace the battery if:


• Battery v oltage will not rise to manufactur­
er's specified value. (Usually a stabilized
open circuit voltage of 12.4 volts).
• Battery case or terminals are damaged.

BATTERY CHARGING
A WARNING
Follow charger manufacturer's instructions when
charging batteries. Never use a charger without
these instructions.

~~::tHIIII.tl:l~tli~~ - - - - - -
If maintenance-free batteries are charged at
ampere rates or periods of time greater than
those specified by the manufacturer, the life of
the battery may be shortened.

• Charge battery following manufacturer's


instructions on the charger.

A WARNING
Always tum the charger to the "'OFF" position
before connecting the leads to the battery.

NOTE:-----------------------
Periodic charging is necessary during extended
storage.

BATTERY CHARGING
The batteries must be charged properly before
using for the first time. This initial charge will pro­
long the life of the batteries.

~~j~M~~IIDB.II~l1~:~~ - - - - - - -
To insure maximum battery performance be sure
to:
• Charge a new battery before use.
• Maintain proper electrolyte level.
Be especially careful not to overfill the batter­
ies, or allow the electrolyte level to drop
below the top of the plates.
• Do not overcharge the batteries.
Failure to observe these points will result in a
shortened battery life.

NOTE:-----------------------
Periodic charging is necessary during extended
storage.

Battery charging steps:


• Before charging: only add distilled water if
fluid is below the top of the plates, and then
add just enough to cover plates.
• After charging: check that the fluid level is
approximately 1/ 4 to 1/ 2 inch above the
plates. If the fluid level is low, carefully add
distilled water. Adding distilled water after
charging prevents boil over.
• Add only distilled water after a battery has
been placed in service, never add more acid
to battery.

A WARNING
Battery electrolyte is dangerous; it contains
sulfuric acid and is therefore poisonous and
Y·145 highly caustic.
Always follow these precautionary measures:
• Avoid bo'dily contact with electrolyte as it
can cause severe burns or permanent eye
injury.

• Wear protective eye gear when handling or
working near batteries.
Antidote (EXTERNAL):
• SKIN- Flush with water.
• EYES - Flush with water for 15 minutes and

Antidote (INTERNAL):
• Drink large quantities of water or milk, fol­
low with milk of magnesia, beaten egg, or

tion.
Batteries also generate explosive hydrogen
gas. Therefore you should always follow these
precautionary measures:
• Charge batteries in a well-ventilated area.
• Keep batteries away from fire, sparks, or
open flames (e.g., welding equipment, light­
ed cigarettes, etc.)
• DO NOT SMOKE when charging or handling
batteries.
KEEP BATTERIES AND ELECTROLYTE OUT OF
REACH OF CHILDREN.

The following is a summary of the charging


steps. Do not attempt to recharge the golf car's
batteries without thoroughly reading and
understanding the owner's manual provided
with your charger.
• Turn the main switch to the OFF position.
• With the charger properly connected and
grounded (see charger's owner's manual),
insert the DC output plug into the golf car
receptacle.
• Monitor the ammeter on the charger accord­
ing to instructions found in the charger' s
owner's manual.
• The charger will turn off automatically when
Y-146
the batteries reach full charge.

A WARNING
Do not unplug the charger from the receptacle
of the car until the charger is turned off.
Unplugging an operating charger will cause
sparks which could ignite explosive gases.

• After the charger has turned off, disconnect


the DC output plug from the golf car recepta­
cle by grasping the plug body and pulling
the plug straight out of the receptacle.

2-42
ELECTRICAL (FOR G14-El I~Jfl&]
• Check the specific gravity of each cell with a
hydrometer. If the hydrometer reading is
below the specification, additional charging
is necessary.

• Install the filler caps, and thoroughly wipe


off the fluid around the filler caps.

Preferable charging:
• For the first ten rounds, new batteries
should go only 18 holes between charges.
• A 20 minute charge between rounds helps
extend battery life.
• Organize and store the cars so that they can
be used equally.
• The batteries should be charged every day if
used. If they are not used and checking
shows that catch-up charging is not
required, they should not be charged.

\ 1. PWM control circuit
I I
I I FD In the partial open range, the FET controls the
I - oN motor speed with fast repeating "ON" and "OFF"
I
\ ......,. hf --- OFF switching .
In this case, while the FET is "ON" (time t), the
current 10 is on to traction motor; while FET is in
"OFF" (time T-t), the current IF is on to traction
motor through FD (Field Diode).
Consequently, in the partial open range, the bat­
tery current IDwill be reduced, because the motor
current IM is compounded with 10 and If.

5. Electric current control circuit (Current limiter)
The current limiter keeps the traction motor and
controller from burning out due to a too large
current when the traction motor locks.

6. Safegaurd circuit
1) Spark Contact Protection (Cut-off switch)
• The current is on after the solenoid relay is
on.
• FET is forced off when the shift lever is
moved from forward or reverse position.

2) Low-Voltage protection
• FET is turned off by force if the battery
voltage becomes 1OV to prevent relay chat­
tering damage by an excessive discharge of
the battery.

3) Thermal protector
• The FET is forced OFF, when the FET tem­
perature reaches 100"C.
• When the thermal protector cuts in, stop
and let it cool for a while, then start again.

1) Check battery terminals for tightness or corrosion.
2) Check the battery electrolyte level.
3) Check the specific gravity of battery electrolyte.
4) Check battery cells for damage.
5) Check the charging circuit for loose connections, broken wires, or separated connections.
6) Check whether the battery charger output is adjusted correctly, and that proper A. C. voltage (115 Volts,
15 Amp) exists at the battery charger A.C. connection.
7) Check that the charging receptacle is tightly connected to the charger plug.
8) Check the charge cord for damage.
9) Check battery capacity with a discharge tester.

B. Solenoid control circuit and traction motor circuit


10) Check the solenoid control circuit and traction motor circuit for loose connectors. (Check for loose connectors
on the speed controller, solenoid relay and traction motor.)
11) Check the solenoid relay for dirty, burned or worn-contact points.
12) Check he traction motor for worn brushes, misaligned brushes, or dirty commutator.

C. Parts other than circuits


13) Check the brake for proper play. (Check if the brakes are dragging.)
14) Check whether the throttle position sensor is properly adjusted.
15) Check whether the tire pressure is low.
[Tire pressure: 137 kPa (1.4 kgf/cm2, 20 psi) G14-El
108 kPa (1.1 kgf/cm2, 16 psi) G14-Al
16) Check for excessive wheel bearing friction.
17) Check the differential for oil leakage or malfunction.
18) Check whether the operation of controls is correct. Except when low speed operation is necessary, the car
should be run with the accelerator pedal fully depressed as much as possible to minimize power consumption.

2. When the car does not move.

1) Check whether the batteries are discharged.


2) Check the battery posts and battery terminals for loose or separated connections, or corrosion.
3) Place the main switch in the "ON" position and step on the accelerator pedal to check whether a click is heard.
If no click, check the solenoid relay, main switch, accelerator stop switch, cut-off switch and charging
receptacle.
4) Check traction motor, for loose or separated connections.
5) Check the traction motor for worn or separated brushes, or dirty commutator. Also check the armature
circuits for broken wires or shortcircuit.

• Check the forward-reverse switch


1) Check the operation of the forward-reverse switch. Check the motor circuit for loose or separated connections.
2) Check the contact of the forward-reverse switch.

4. When the acceleration becomes rough, uneven or jerky.

1) Check for loose or separated connections between the speed controller and solenoid relay.
2) Check for loose terminal.
3) Check the throttle sensor.

5. The car abruptly starts off the moment the main switch is set to the " ON" position.
1) Check the engine stop switch and solenoid relay for stuck contact points.
2) Check for stuck accelerator pedal.
3) Check the throttle sensor.

6. The car abruptly stops. Refer to Item 2 or 3 above.

7. The car's top speed slows.


1) Check the batteries for sulfation and discharge capacity.
Check the battery electrolyte level and charged condition.
2) Check the batteries, speed controller and traction motor for loose connections.
3) Check the throttle sensor.
4) Check for wires shorted or separated at connections.
5) Check the traction motor for worn or separated brushes, or dirty commutator.
8. The motor does not stop even when the accelerator pedal is released.

• The motor stops if the main switch is placed in the OFF position:
1) Check the engine stop switch.
• The motor does not stop even if the main switch is placed in the OFF position:

INTRODUCTION

This manual has been written by Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Corporation of America for use by
Authorized Yamaha dealers and their qualified mechanics. It is not possible to put an entire mechan­
ic's education into a manual, so it is assumed that persons using this book to perform maintenance
and repairs on Yamaha golf cars have a basic understanding of the mechanical concepts and proce­
dures inherent to these products. Without such knowledge, attempted repairs or service to this golf
car may render it unfit to use and/or unsafe.

Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Corporation of America is continually striving to further improve all
models manufactured by the company. Modifications are therefore inevitable and will, where applic­
able, appear in future editions of this manual.

INTRODUCTION

This manual has been written by Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Corporation of America for use by
Authorized Yamaha dealers and their qualified mechanics. It is not possible to put an entire mechan­
ic's education into a manual, so it is assumed that persons using this book to perform maintenance
and repairs on Yamaha golf cars have a basic understanding of the mechanical concepts and proce­
dures inherent to these products. Without such knowledge, attempted repairs or service to this golf
car may render it unfit to use and/or unsafe.

Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Corporation of America is continually striving to further improve all
models manufactured by the company. Modifications are therefore inevitable and will, where applic­
able, appear in future ed itions of this manual.

BATTERY CHARGING

The batteries must be charged properly before

using for the first time. This initial charge will pro­

long the life of the batteries.

CAUTION
To insure maximum battery performance be sure
to:
• Charge a new battery before use.
• Maintain proper electrolyte level.
Be especially careful not to overfill the batter­
ies, or allow the electrolyte level to drop
below the top of the plates.
• Do not overcharge the batteries.
Failure to observe these points will result in a
shortened battery life.

NOTE:-----------­
Periodic charging is necessary during extended

storage.

Battery charging steps:


• Before charging: only add distilled water if
fluid is below the top of the plates, and then
add just enough to cover plates.
• After charging: check that the fluid level is
approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch above the
plates and 1/4 to 3/8 inch below the level
indicator. If the fluid level is low, carefully
add distilled water. Adding distilled water
after charging prevents boil over.
• Add only distilled water after a battery has
been placed in service, never add more acid
Y-837
to batterv.

A WARNING
Battery electrolyte is dangerous; it contains

sulfuric acid and is therefore poisonous and

highly caustic.

Always follow these precautionary measures:

• Avoid bodily contact with electrolyte as it


can cause severe burns or permanent eye
injury.

2-2
-~~~~~~~~~~IANDJsPI~I
ELECTRICAL (FOR G19E) _


_~ _

Wear protective eye gear when handling or


working near batteries.
Antidote (EXTERNAL):
• SKIN· Flush with water.
• EYES- Flush with water for 15 minutes and
get immediate medical attention.
Antidote (INTERNAL):
• Do not induce vomiting.
• Drink large quantities of water or milk, fol­
low with milk of magnesia, beaten egg, or
vegetable oil. Get immediate medical atten­
tion.
Batteries also generate explosive hydrogen
gas. Therefore you should always follow these
precautionary measures:
• Charge batteries in a well-ventilated area.
• Keep batteries away from fire, sparks, or
open flames (e.g., welding equipment, light­
ed cigarettes, etc.)
• DO NOT SMOKE when charging or handling
batteries.
KEEP BATTERIES AND ELECTROLYTE OUT OF
REACH OF CHILDREN.

48V BATTERY CHARGER


The following is a summary of the 48V charger
features, operating instructions, LED light mon­
itoring system and preferable charging recom­
mendations. Do not attempt to recharge the
golf car's batteries without thoroughly reading
and understanding this section and the owner's
manual provided with the 48V charger.

2-3
ELECTRICAL (FOR G19EI l'}l'gs llhlll
48V CHARGER FEATURES
1. When the charger completes a charging cycle, an internal relay turns the charger off automatically,
preventing any additional power consumption.
2. If AC power is lost during charging and DC charging cord stays plugged into car, the charge cycle will
resume from the same point in the cycle when AC power is restored.
3. If AC power is lost after a complete charge cycle, the charger will remain off when AC power is
restored.
4. For winter or extended storage, leave the charger connected. After 2 weeks and when battery voltage
drops to 2.05 volts per cell (48 Volts), a refresh charge oycle will occur automatically.
5. The charger has reverse polarity protection.
6. If the charge cycle does not complete within 16 hours, the charger will turn off and the LED will signal
an abnormal charge cycle.

48V CHARGER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS


1. Turn golf car main switch to off position.
2. Plug ACcord into grounded receptacle.
3. Plug DC cord into car's charge receptacle.
4. The charger will go through a self diagnostic test (each of the five LED lights will flash).

NOTE:--------------------------------------------------------
If charger fails to display the diagnostic test, check the charging circuit fusible link, located in the charge
receptacle negative lead wire. A fuse failure indicates damage and/or short circuit of the DC charge cord,
plug or the charge receptacle on the vehicle. Refer to Chapter 2, "CHARGING CIRCUIT FUSIBLE LINK".

5. When the car is ready for service, disconnect the DC outlet plug from the golf car receptacle by grasp­
ing the plug body and pulling the plug straight out of the receptacle.

TROUBLESHOOTING FOR G19E ~~~~ ? I

ELECTRICAL TROUBLESHOOTING
Shou ld any one of the troubles below occur, it is
advisable to check for the possible cause in the
order specified.

Before performing any tests in this chapter, reset


the Controller as follows:
1. Turn main switch "OFF" and Tow switch <D
to "Tow" position. Wait 30 seconds.
2. Turn main switch "ON", and Tow switch to
"RUN" position.
Test the reported malfunction. If the problem is
now corrected, the controller needed to reset
internally. There are two potential causes of this
condition.
1. The user operated the tow switch without
Y-£7s allowing the system to reset. Educate the
user that the tow switch is to be used by ser­
vice personnel only for vehicle towing or long
term storage.
2. If this kind of ma lfunction occurs more fre­
quently, there may be a fault caused by a
poor or intermittent wire connection.

A WARNING
Secure vehicle and discharge the controller
capacitor. Refer to Chapter 1, "SAFETY PRECAU­
TIONS" section.

INTRODUCTION

This manual has been written by Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Corpo ration of America for use by
Authorized Yamaha dea lers and their qualified mechanics. It is not possible to put an entire mechan­
ic's education into a manual, so it is assumed that persons using this book to perform maintenance
and repairs on Yamaha golf cars have a basic understanding of the mecha nica l concepts and proce­
dures inherent to these products. Without such knowledge, attempted repairs or service to this golf
car may render it unfit to use and/or unsafe.

Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Co rporation of America is continually striving to further improve all
models manufactured by the company. Modifications are therefore inevitable and w ill, where applic­
able, appear in future editions of this manual.
