Powakaddy CT6 issue

[Gareth Maguire]

My Powakaddy CT6 (GPS) is showing a fully charged battery (i.e. green light on the battery charger, & a fully charged/green battery on the display screen) although it doesn't appear to be engaging the wheels when I press on the centre 'Go/Stop' circle.

Anybody familiar with this issue? TIA

Are the wheel in free wheel mode instead of being fully locked in. And are they on the right sides?

They are, thanks - just double checked. There appears to be no movement around the motor/wheels at all

Hmmm a bit more serious then. When I had a powakaddy I YouTube my issue which turned out to be the gear box and was so easy to change. It was literally 6 bolts! Saved a fortune!

If nobody comes back it may be worth a check before you seek out a service.

I’ve just checked it on a mates ct6, my battery works fine on his, confirming it’s an issue with the trolley. Any idea how to to determine what it could be? (Other than putting it in with a Powakaddy rep?) TIA

Won’t be buying a CT 6 then! Are these not under some kind of warranty?

Could be anything, motor failure, pcb component failure etc. Have you tried cleaning the four contacts on the trolley battery port?

Could be a broken cable/wire, check any points where the cable is exposed and bending when folding.
It happened to my Go-kart.
Just a thought

Easy test for you, take the bottom cover off and see if the speed control pcb has an led light up when the power is on...
