Club car DS died; batteries ok

kruton · 07-09-2016, 02:24 PM

I have a 2004 club car DS / IQ. It would be running at full power then suddenly lose power and drive very slowly for a brief period then pick back up to full speed. Then that same day it died. As suggested by a few people on this forum, I got a voltage meter and checked each battery.

They all checked out ok. A friend had heard there is a fuse that can blow that may be the issue. Has anyone heard of that? If so, any idea where this fuse is?

Would anyone have any other suggestions what to do since my batteries appear to be ok?

Thanks in advance!

Check every connection of the power cables. They can crode and loose connection, sometimes you can not see it inside the cable look for stiff cables, check the motor cables also.
