To do-I guess I check the gray wire from the inside with the charger plugged in the cart but not the wall to see if it loops through the charge cord? I’ll try that next and then find a jumper wire and I assume I should do that with the fuse back in from the front side of the receptacle direct to the pack neg. Would you recommend the lester summit if the obc turns out to be dead? |

Installed new relay and it’s all working. Charger is running the test cycles etc. 15 amp charge and cycling down to under 5 amp charge when I last checked 30 min ago. Thanks |

Re: 2004 CC DS IQ not charging?
Now charging. Been running and cycling ever since!
Old relay cut open. Wasn’t clicking. Contacts a bit burned. |

Re: 2004 CC DS IQ not charging?
How often is it cycling? Should cycle once when the charge starts, then again only every few hours. How quickly did it drop down to 5amps? A pack that is low should charge at 15-17 amps for a few hours before it starts to lower the amperage.
Now that the charger is working, reset the OBC by disconnecting the pack negative cable for 15-20 minutes. Reconnect and then plug in the charger. Normally I don’t like to see the ammeter under 5 amps. That tends to indicate the OBC is failing. It should settle around 5-7 amps depending on battery condition. Try the reset, and make sure the amperage stays up around 12-15 amps for a while. |

I stepped in to check on it maybe 4 pm between cutting trees and working in the yard. It was silent. I’m concerned and feel the charger and it’s slightly warm but not hot. I glance under the seat. Nothing melted or smelling burned. I glance towards the charger then it switched on and I hear a buzz. It’s running at 15amps. I apparently came in during an off cycle. At 830 pm I check on it. It’s running but now at 5 amps. Maybe the angle on the photo. It’s probably right at 5amps when I snapped the photo at a weird angle. It’s actually from a distance with a flashlight on it and I zoomed in/cropped it. |

Re: 2004 CC DS IQ not charging?
Would some of this diag be easier with hooking up to the alltrax?

Charger diag with the alltrax? Charger and OBC are their own separate system. No communication between them and the controller except for interlock function, and that’s just an On/off signal. |

Re: 2004 CC DS IQ not charging?
OBC diag is what I was thinking. Ok I recalled some obc function but, I guess not anything but a signal to it. Wasn’t thinking charger diag just obc.

Re: 2004 CC DS IQ not charging?
Unplugged just now. Backed out. No “under-charged” lights. All seems well.
