🌟 Introduction
In this article, we will guide you through the process of installing a Stinger Keyless Key Switch on a Club Car 48-volt golf cart. The Stinger Keyless Key Switch not only provides convenience and ease of use, but it also enhances the security of your golf cart. Let's get started!
🛠️ Removing the Instrument Panel
The first step is to remove the instrument panel of your golf cart. This will allow access to the existing key switch. Carefully detach the instrument panel, ensuring that you retain the hardware for later use.
🔑 Installing the Stinger Keyless Key Switch
On the backside of the key switch, you will find four prongs that hold the faceplate. Gently push these prongs to release the faceplate. Next, locate the nut on the inside of the key switch and use a 1-inch socket to loosen it. Once the nut is removed, you can pull out the key switch from the backside.
🔌 Connecting the Wires
Disconnect the blue and green wires from the backside of the key switch. Take note of the configuration, as you will need to match it with the Stinger Keyless Key Switch later. The Stinger Keyless Key Switch has a green, blue, red, and black Spade connector on the backside. Simply connect the blue and green wires from the key switch to their corresponding colors on the Stinger Keyless Key Switch.
🔋 Charging the Battery Pack
Before connecting any wires to the Stinger Keyless Key Switch, ensure that the battery pack of your golf cart is fully charged. This will prevent any power-related issues during the installation process.
🚗 Reattaching the Dashboard
Once the Stinger Keyless Key Switch is securely connected, it's time to reattach the dashboard. Use the retained hardware from earlier to fix the instrument panel back into place. Take care not to over tighten the plastic nut while securing it.
🗝️ Setting Up the Master Code Card
Each Stinger Keyless Key Switch kit comes with a master code card. It is crucial to keep this card in a safe place as it will be needed if you want to change the four-digit pin in the future. Ensure your golf cart is in the run mode and use the four digits at the end of your master code to operate the Stinger Keyless Key Switch.
📱 Using the Stinger Keyless Key Switch
To start using your golf cart with the Stinger Keyless Key Switch, enter the four digits of your master code and press start. You will hear two beeps, indicating successful activation. The battery gauge will light up, confirming that the switch is ready for use. To turn off the cart, simply press stop.
✨ Personalizing the Code
If you wish to personalize your code instead of using the master code, follow these steps. While the LEDs are flashing, enter your master code and then input your new four-digit code. You will hear two beeps, indicating successful code update. Now, your new code will start and stop the cart.
📲 Accessing the Stinger Pro Mobile App
For added convenience, you can download the Stinger Pro mobile app from your app store. Connect your phone to the Stinger Keyless Key Switch via Bluetooth by selecting the device from the app. Once connected, you can easily turn the Stinger on and off using your phone.
