Battery meter
The new one (came with lithium conversion) has two connections but old one has three. Which two wires do I use to connect to new one?
Thanx in advance. |

Re: Battery meter
Your new one will use pack Negative or B- on controller and the positive side goes to the Closed Key side so it turns on when the key is turned on. You could also hook to Pack positive but it will stay on all the time.
I'm no expert but just wired one up...My cart (Precedent) had a black wire with yellow strip behind the dash which was the Pack negative and I tapped into the key switch wire (the one that goes hot when the key is turned on). List your cart year and model and I'm sure someone on here knows the exact wires to hook into on your specific cart. |

Re: Battery meter
It's a custom build 3 seat mongrel but it does use a run/tow switch so I'm assuming it's based off a club car system. I wired mine directly to my switch. He is considering a toggle vs. key switch. I may just have him wire to that.

Re: Battery meter
Put a DVM on it and test it to see which two gives you pack voltage...and you're done. I would assume the 3rd wire gives a low pack voltage warning of some sort from the OBC or is associated with a dash light dimmer..
