Re: new to site have charging problems
What is the voltage as measured at the cart charge receptacle? Did you remember to attach the charge wire to the Main Pack Positive?

If it started after you changed batteries you have it miswired somewhere.

Re: new to site have charging problems
replaced my old volt/ohm meter and discovered the batteries i just bought are 12, not 6v. DUH! no where on the battery does it state the voltage. never trust the salesman.

Well yea...that would definately do it. This is the first time I've seen 12's get swapped in place of 6's. Its always 8 volters or vise versa. |
