Electric Trouble-Shoot 48v Brake lock up when pedal is released

I have a 2005 all electric badboy buggie that the brakes lock up on when the accelerator pedal is released? Anyone have any Ideas why. Thanks

Are you sure it's the brakes and not regen braking? Sounds like your regen braking is working overtime.

Is there a way to test it?

I'm sure there is but I don't know it hopefully one of the guys who do know will chime in.

Yup, common problem. Start with the speed sensor on the front motor, same as an RXV speed sensor, 2013s also had the parasitic draw off the harness, so be sure to either find the correct OEM bypass, or flip the run tow switch when you're done with it, or less those controllers will draw 2Volts per day and after a week, you'll need a boost charger
