Generator output voltage?

Timbeaux38 · 08-13-2008, 10:40 AM

anybody have an idea of the output voltage of the generator in my cart? (03 TXT)

I have a ridiculously large blue top Optima battery in there and it likes to see 13.8 volts to charge. I have a sneaking suspicion that the cart does not provide that voltage. any ideas?

Thanks!

Apparently I have a gremlin in my audio then. My cart sat for a few weeks while I had the body off and drained the battery completely. Now I know how the sparkies feel waiting on a charge

A few weeks may be long enough for the clock and station preselects to drain the bat, I have that problem on my wifes pontoon. Also some sterios have a mute, standby if you don't push the off butten long enough. Don't you hate it when all you want is a little ride to relax and now its jumer time.

GOOD LUCk

This battery is supposed to be the poo-poo though... I cant imagine the radio being the culprit....
