Charger stopped working

Mr.ken

I have a 48 v club car. Last time I tried to plug it in the charger never turned on. I'm assuming its a charger issue but is there anything on the cart that could have gone wrong??

could be the obc, or on board computer, or maybee just a relay inside the charger

Also could just be very low pack voltage, not allowing the charger to come on, when was the last time you charged the batts?

Mr.ken

Prior to the problem. It was 4 weeks. I was on vacation and when I got home I plugged it in and nada

scottginfla

check pack voltage, and also, each batt

I see you are here in FLA, was your charger plugged into the wall, maybe a power surge or a lightning strike nearby.

My initial thought is your pack voltage is to low to let the charger come on, maybe a couple weak batts.

If so then replace bad batts and go from there

Mr.ken

It wouldn't surprise me at all the batteries were bad. Even know they were new when I bought the car my charger is not a fluke charger and I didn't realize that for the first couple of years. I had planned on getting a flu charger so I can keep them charge properly but I will probably have to get new batteries also. Not exactly sure how to test the batteries so I may have to bring them somewhere to be tested

Mr.ken

Is there a way to he the batteries to charge at all?? I know they will all need replacement in the fall but I need to drive it to do some repairs. My household charger is only 6 or 12 volt.....not 8 volt
