Control Box and Circuit Board

Our first little article tonight is regarding the control box or controller. The control box is the brains of the golf trolley and its purpose is to regulate the speed and power from the battery to the motor via the potentiometer. The control box is not to be confused with the potentiometer, which is located in the handle. It is essential that when you are connecting the battery to the control box that you do not reverse the polarity as in most cases this will result in damage to the control unit.

The second item regards the circuit board which is linked to when you alter the speed and distance in the handle. If you have a digital trolley and lose the display on the handle together with lack of power to the motor it is likely that the circuit board in the handle has developed a fault. This may be down to a loose connection but in most cases the circuit board needs replacing and if you let us do the work we will also check the other wiring and potentiometer to make sure it’s all ok.

If you require any further information then don't hesitate to email us at info@golftrolleygarage.co.uk and we will endevour to help you.
