Overview
This is the Navitas TAC2 600A conversion kit for Star EV 1268 non-ITS carts, supplied with the 5kW AC motor. It replaces Curtis 1268 non-ITS throttle controls.
This is a full DC to AC conversion. The AC system gives noticeably more speed and torque than the DC drive it replaces, and it is more efficient, so the same pack goes further on a charge.
This is the CAN version of the kit. It ships a CAN enabled control, which joins the data network your cart already uses to pass information between the controller, dash and charger. The manufacturer also builds a non-CAN version of this kit for carts without that network.
The two are the same motor and the same amp rating. The only difference is the control. If you are not sure which your cart uses, send us the cart make, model and year and a photo of the existing controller and we will tell you which version to order.
Programming and live diagnostics are done through the Navitas app on a phone or tablet. Dealer level app access is available for qualified customers.

Requirements and install notes
The controller must be programmed with the Navitas app before the cart will drive. A smartphone or tablet is required.
Fitting the AC motor means pulling the old DC motor. Budget for a full afternoon and have the cart on jack stands.
Disconnect the battery pack and discharge the old controller before you touch any terminal.
Check the main battery cables, terminals and solenoid before installation. A conversion puts more current through them than the DC system did.
If you are not comfortable working on a traction system at this voltage, have the kit installed by a qualified golf cart technician.
