Re: Textron charger not charging
Ronf,
You can bypass the on/off relay on the board by putting a jumper wire across the two relay terminals.
Here is how:
1. depending on your cart place the cart in tow/maintenace with the switch on the controller cover.
2. Remove the cover on the charger with it unplugged.
3. Plug the charger in on the cart
4. Place a jump wire (12 Awg Min) across the two terminals on the on/off relay on circuit board. This should be the board that is mounted on the bottom of the charger next to the capacitor and will be a small black box with two black wires hooked to it.
5. Plug the charger in and listen for it to power on. Do not leave the charger plugged in for more than a few seconds as to err on the side of safety.
6. If the charger powers on then in all liklihood the on/off board is bad and needs to be replaced (around $70.00).
7. If it does not power on then check the charger plug and continuity of the red wire running from the back side of the cart charger receptalce to the battery.
Good luck.
