Birdie Pro Programming Cable for Tara Spirit Plus Roadster Explorer
Looking to unlock more performance from your Evolution golf cart? The Birdie Pro Programming Cable gives you the power to customize your ride with ease. Designed specifically for Evolution/Tara EV golf carts equipped with the EV48-400 series controller, this plug-and-play cable allows you to make changes typically reserved for dealers—without cutting wires or sending your cart in for service.
Compatibility:
This cable works with 2022–and up Evolution carts including Classic, Forester, D3, D5, and D-MAX models that use the Evolution-branded EV48-400, EV48-400-A, or EV48-400-C controller. It is not compatible with earlier models using a Curtis controller. It is also compatible with the Tara models that use this controller as well. Your controller may say either Evolution or Tara on it, but should have the same model number, or even 400A AC listed on the controller label.
To confirm compatibility, remove the rear access panel behind the seat (held on by four plastic rivets), or on Forward Facing models the controller is under the rear seat, and inspect your controller. If the controller is labeled “Evolution” or "Tara" you should be good to go. Compare the label on your controller to the images in this listing. A EV48-400A is the same as a EV48-400.
