Replacing cord on charger
We replaced the cord on the charger and, of course, the various wires were different colors than the last cord. Is there a good way, short of plugging it into the cart, to make sure it's hooked up correctly? If not, what's the worst that will happen if it isn't?
Thanks! Jason |

Check the polarity with a volt ohm meter. |

Re: Replacing cord on charger
Is the cord replacement for 120 volt AC ( house power ) or pack voltage 36 or 48 volts DC? Many sponsors have exact cord with correct colors on each wire in cable, so there is no problems with replacement.

Re: Replacing cord on charger
Yeah, that picture is what I'm afraid of! I'll try the ohm meter...it's for household power but the colors were all different...go figure!

Re: Replacing cord on charger
Household power should be black white and green. Black is the HOT, white is the NEUTRAL, and green is the GROUND

Re: Replacing cord on charger
I wonder if the cord that ISLANDHARDWARE used was some made in China like so much junk coming into USA now days, and they dont understand that USA has a standard of colors for AC cord? I saw a roll of AC cord ( NO MANUFACTURER OR COUNTRY LABEL ) like that in Home Depot the other day that had different colored insulated leads inside? I sure wouldnt want to use it because when I moved leads the insulation cracked and fell off in flakes?? Really high quality stuff HUH?
