Battery ck
How much voltage should each battery be on an average if checked with volt meter? I checked all batteries together, it was 33 volts but cart will still not move. Could it be the cylonoid? How to ck? Thanks for help!

Re: Battery ck
33 volts and the batteries are beyond dead. 36 volts is considered dead. You should have a little over 6 volts per battery. The condition of the batteries will determine how much voltage the batteries put out.....either way, 33 volts is dead.

Re: Battery ck
I have checked each battery and 2 are below 5 the other 4 are above 6 volts-but would this make cart not move?

Re: Battery ck
Do you think its a good idea to just replace the 2 or all of them?

Re: Battery ck
You can "get by" with replacing the 2 bad ones with 2 used ones. (NOT New ones) However if it is time for them to go bad, I would suggest replacing all 6 with new ones.

Re: Battery ck
You could try to charge each one individually but I doubt that will cure the problem. One or more of the cells in those 2 batteries possibly has a short.

Re: Battery ck
If cart only has 33 volts is that low enough for cart not to move at all? Cart does make clicking sound when pedal is mashed but doesnt move.
