What Happens To Your Golf Cart When The Solenoid Goes Bad?

The large contacts in a gas golf cart may refuse to release, causing the starter to run even after turning off the ignition.

Furthermore, the springs that pull the gear back to its resting state may start to break down.
Making the starters remain disengaged all of the time.
(Starters are designed to get the engine running, then disconnect.)

The solenoid, like any equipment that depends on wiring, might simply wear out from overheating.

The most common side effect on a gas golf cart is the starter failing to connect, resulting in the engine not turning over and a succession of useless tapping sounds.

If your golf cart fails to turn on when you turn the key on, this is the most obvious sign of solenoid failure.

The solenoid clicks a little with the ignition system in regular operation; in most cases, a failing solenoid will not snap.

There could be three things going on here: faulty interconnections, weak batteries, or the coil wearing out.
