Battery blew up.
a friend of mine asked if I'd take a look at his cart , said that something went bang! He mentioned that his passenger almost left his set . I have some knowledge about carts in general , enough to know to look under the set for answers at least , apparently it's more than he knows because he had no idea what made the noise , just pushed it home and parked it for months . So here is the cart , It a western golf and country and I believe its a 100 model.

Big black mark under the set on the passenger side. Bet that guy will think twice about golfing ever again.

Re: Battery blew up.
Only a handful of things that can cause it. Usually poor maintenance.
Every great now and again something bad could go wrong inside the battery to cause it. |

Re: Battery blew up.
It happens when the electrolyte or acid gets down below the level of the plates, the separators dry out and can short out causing an explosion - bad maintenance. This is why I love my gas machine - much less chance of loosing an eye or worst a test tic al LOL

Re: Battery blew up.
If the friend "just pushed it home" and could not figure out what made the noise, I would guess poor battery maintenance. I am not sure how you could lift up the seat and not notice that exploded battery.
