Golf Cart Solenoid 12V Solenoid Relay Compatible with Club Car DS

In this review of the Golf Cart Solenoid 12V Solenoid Relay, the bottom line is clear: this replacement is aimed at owners of older Club Car gas models who need a dependable, direct-fit starter relay. It replaces multiple OEM numbers including 1013609, 435-154, 1012275, 1117 and LPL6003 and is designed for 1984-up Club Car DS and 2004-up Precedent gas carts. The single biggest reason to buy is practical: this unit restores the starter current bypass function so the cart will start and it protects the ignition switch from overheating.

Key Features

• Direct OEM Replacement: Replaces part numbers 1013609, 435-154, 1012275, 1117 and LPL6003 so it matches the original solenoid for a straightforward swap.
• Compatibility: Built for 1984-up Club Car DS and 2004-up Club Car Precedent gas models, which makes it a useful spare for common Club Car years.
• Durable Construction: Uses a high quality magnetic core and coil to generate the magnetic field necessary to reliably control high current circuits in the starter system.
• Safety Function: Allows starter current to bypass the ignition switch, preventing wire and switch overheating and potential damage.
• Plug-and-Play Installation: Accurate reproduction of the original, supplied with nuts and washers, so it installs with basic tools after disconnecting the battery.
• Clear Electrical Limits: Rated for 12 volts with working current less than 200 A and recommended around 80 A to prolong service life.

Who It's For

This solenoid is for Club Car owners, repair shops, and DIY mechanics who run gas-powered Club Car DS models from 1984 and newer or Precedent models from 2004 and newer and need a cost-effective, accurate replacement for a failed starter relay. It is especially suited to those who want a part that matches multiple OEM numbers to avoid compatibility guesswork.

It is not intended for electric Club Car models or for carts whose starter motor power exceeds the advised limit of about 1.2 kW; users with unusual electrical setups or non-Club Car models should confirm fit and ratings before purchasing.
