Cart Subtotal:
The electric golf cart motor spins at, give or take, 3,000 revolutions per minute. It may be a little more or less, depending on the one you have in the cart; either way, that is a lot of wear on the internal components. The motor is compromised of several parts, the first being the armature. That is the thing that spins in the middle. It is mounted on a bearing hidden in the case that surrounds everything and contains the fields. The terminals are mounted in that case and have a GE Motor Brush Set connected to them via a cable. Why are they called brushes? They are solid as a rock without a single bristle. Well, they are designed to rub or "brush" directly against the armature to transfer power. You can see why they wear out so fast.
If you have not done this kind of work before, you may want to consider ordering the parts from Buggies Unlimited and taking your cart to a shop to do the work. Switching the golf cart brushes is no problem. Getting the motor on and off the caddie is a big job. Make sure if you are going to do this yourself, you have help.
I have a 1991 and ordered Part # MTR ML0512 they are listed for 1980 to 93 36 volt, they work and fit perfectly. Hope this helps
I am not even sure the brand new f cart I have ( it is so old, even the I’d tag on the motor is gone. I ordered according to the physical measurements of the brush. The ones I ordered have served me well. I have learned so hat a loose connection on the brush studs (by failure to tighten sufficiently or heat) will cause premature failure. Hope this helps.
We do not have the brush plate for these.
