Cart or charger issue?
I got an '01 ezgo pds and a power wise charger. I have not touched the cart in 4-6 weeks but the last time it drove fine. I charged it when I was done. FF to today, I hop in, drive out of the garage and let it coast down the drive way. Once on the street all it did was barely shutter. Would not go. I push it back in and plug it in. The amp meter on the charger stays at 0 but does make the click to turn on and buzzes lightly as normal. Shouldn't the charger jump up, then count down to 0 ?? I checked the light on the altrax while I hit the pedal. It flashed red 6 times then went back to green. My headlights hooked up to 2 of the batts were VERY dim, barely visible. Anyone got an idea as to what's goin on?? Thanks

Re: Cart or charger issue?
Check the batteries with a digital volt meter. Possibly, the pack has lost the charge to the point where the charger will not recognize the pack. I think that is around 30 volts or so but not sure. If that has happened, you will have to charge the batteries two at a time with a 12 volt charger...then finish with the cart charger. Could also have one bad battery.

Found 1 bad battery. Testing each batt with a meter and a light, they would all maintain their voltage when the light came on. 1 batt had the voltage drop to 2v when the light came on and only peaked at 4v with no light. Replaced the one and the cart is running perfect
