There is a problem with these carts. I called Yamaha and they would not admit to anything and the dealer is clueless. I now carry a small jump box and turn off the speedometer display when playing golf, looking for possibilities.
Why not just get rid of the parasitic GPS speedometer? Our carts are set to max out at 20 MPH, so no speedometer needed. If you feel a need to know your traveling speed that bad, there are numerous apps you can use on your phone that are extremely accurate.
