95 Club Car DS not charging

hollywood23113

LOL, Im full of question and problems today guys...

This cart is a 95 Club car DS, 48v, new batteries, charger will not come on. I tried jumping from another cart incase it was just to dead but that is not the case. Charger is good because I tried it on another cart. But on this one, you hear it click but nothing happens. I took it for a 3 miles ride, motor starting getting loud and smells like burning. When I got back the motor would burn your hand. Now, will a bad motor hinder the cart from charging or do I have 2 problems here. Thanks Guys

well.... charger will not come on if batteries are too low
hot motor is not good .. will not effect charger

I don't think the batteries are too low, It still seems like it has plenty of power, They are reading about 8.4-8.6

8.6 x 6 = 51.6v is a fully charged battery pack .. charger would not come on then

Just checked again. All are 8.2-8.3 and total was 49.3???

Resetting the Club Car On board computer - reset the OBC

To reset the OBC the following must be done in this order:

If no Tow/Run Switch then skip that step

• Key Switch to Off
• Forward/Reverse to Neutral
• Tow/Run Switch to Tow
• Disconnect the Battery NEGATIVE (–) wire from the Battery Minus terminal on the battery pack.
• Put the Tow/Run to Run
• Forward/Reverse Switch to Reverse
• Key Switch to On
• Lock the throttle pedal down

The reverse buzzer will sound and go off in about 30 seconds.
Leave the cart like that for 5 min to cause the OBC to reset.

To reconnect the OBC back into the system:
• Key Switch to Off
• Forward/Reverse Switch to Neutral
• Tow/Run switch to Tow
• Reconnect the Batt – wire to the battery minus
terminal on the battery pack.
• Tow/Run switch to Run
• Key Switch to ON

Okay this will take me and I will try it now

OK, I tried that, no good. Something is really wrong here. I know when you hook the battery back up they are going to arc a little, but this "pop" and spark was extreme. Im pretty sure the motor is going bad and Im gonna replace that Monday, but I don't know why it will not charge, like you said I didn't think that would affect it.
