It was an intermittent problem that would continue for several days at a time. I've had it checked four times now and the turn signal controls have been replaced three times. I took it in again for the fourth time last Friday and some pinched wires were found and repaired and the mirrors replaced. Monday, yesterday while returning from the driving range they started flashing both signals again when I selected a left turn. I drove the cart all the way back to Magnolia Plaza with the left turn signal on and they would stop and restart several times by the time I got there, sometimes flashing very rapidly. Will be scheduling another appointment today to have it looked at. My question is, has anyone else had this problem and if so what was done to fix it? After the last fix it only took three days for it to malfunction again. Thanks in advance.

Well, it wasn't the same problem, but I had an issue with the turn signals on our cart a few years ago that I was able to trace back to the wiring that runs up the square tubing frame that the mirrors are mounted on. When installers drill holes into the tubing, there can be pretty sharp burrs left on the inside edges of the holes which can scrape or wear through the insulation off the wires to the mirrors. This could cause a short or ground & that's exactly what had happened in my case. I ended up pulling the wiring back down, drilling the holes larger, deburring them & installing rubber grommets that would protect the wires when I pulled them back up.

I love hearing about anything that connects “electric”, “vehicle” and the word PROBLEM. Seems to be that we are seeing more and more of those words being connected to one another.
