Re: ezgo help?!?!
How did you check your batteries / What method ?
When did you check the batteries / Before or after charging / Time after charging ? How old are the batteries / Date code ? This sounds like you may have older batteries that do not hold a charge for long and while they may appear good, I'm betting your expectations may be beyond your batteries current (no pun intended) capabilities. Let us know the answers to these questions and let's see if we can help. There are numerous threads available via the search funtion on how to test your batteries. Good luck, K9 |

FWIW my cart is a '92 Marathon and it went 10 mph and slowed on hills with 4 ga wires and new batteries. About $1500.00 later it goes 17 mph and climbs hills much better.

Re: ezgo help?!?!
Well at work we have a batt test kit, it tells volts and stored volts. it will let you know if you have 6 volts (+ or -) and if you press down and it tells you the stored volts (+ or -). They all read 6 and +6 volts and when checking the total of all batts it read 36 volts. The age is 2 years of installed use, ? shelf time. I am just looking to check all that I should before I drop $600+ on new batts.
Thanks for the help!! |

Re: ezgo help?!?!
$1500.00 was a guess because I don't really want to know (-:

Re: ezgo help?!?!
if you are reading 36 volts across the pack one hour after a full charge. your batts are junk.
