Hey Tom, I’ve heard that it’s possible to remove the speed limiter on an electric golf cart. Do you know how to do that?
Hey there! Yep, I can help you out. But I have to mention, removing the speed limiter might void any warranty and could be illegal in some places. Are you sure you want to proceed?
I appreciate the heads-up. I’m only planning to use it on private land for a bit of extra fun. What’s the first step?
Alright, if that's the case, the first thing you need to do is identify what type of speed controller your cart has. It can be either mechanical or electronic. Do you know which one you have?
I’m pretty sure it’s electronic.
Got it. In that case, you'll often find a speed code or setting within the controller that can be adjusted. You’ll likely need a handheld programmer to change these settings. Have you got access to one?
No, I don’t have a programmer. Is there another way to make the cart faster?
Without a programmer, your options are a bit more limited. You might look into upgrading the motor or other components to increase speed. However, that’s a more complex task. I’d recommend talking to a professional for that sort of modification.
Alright, I might just do that. Thanks for the advice, Tom!
No problem at all! Always happy to help. Just remember to drive safely and check your local laws and regulations. Take care!
