Motocaddy S1

    Anyone with a motocaddy S1 will be able to help? Noticed recently that left wheel is locking as I try to turn it right. Not sure if this was always happening. When I removed the wheels I found that only the left wheel is able to freewheel backwards, the right wheel is unable to freewheel backwards. Just wondering if both should be able to freewheel an that there's a problem with it before I go at it with a screwdriver and hammer?

    With mine the wheels freewheel going forward only and engage/lock going backwards.
    Did you recently take off the wheels to clean them and perhaps put them on the wrong sides, the wheels are not interchangeable so the left must go back on the left side only as it won't work on the right side and vice versa.

    I'm not familiar with a Motocaddy but on my old golf glider this happened and it's because there is an internal clutch in the wheel and it just died, needed to get new wheel.

    This is what seems to have happened to mine. The inner assembly of the left wheel is free to spin backwards but the right one doesn't. Just wanted to make sure before I started to disconnect o-rings.
