Default 2017 G29 Drive 2 clicking

So bought my first cart. Drives find but I parked it the other day and I heard clicking and every few minutes it might beep. So I turned the tow switch on and it stopped. Turn it off and the clicking starts.

So then I drove it down the driveway and it beeped while driving. Having not a clue what it was I pulled it back in the garage and put a charge on it and it stopped.

Any ideas?

Do you work on these carts often? I haven’t ridden it since it did it. I will update this post when I have more info. Thank you for your reply.

Sweet. How can you tell when the batteries are going bad? Will the cart beep at you?

You would monitor battery voltage while driving, when the failure occurs.

Would this make it jerk you think. Or what makes it click?

I have also tested the batteries and all put out 8.5V and 51V cycle voltage. Can batteries be bad if they are reading that?

Static voltage is great, if you want to know if they charged last time you plugged them in. But knowing what they do when you actually want them to do work is even better... test them while driving
