Re: 2 bad batteries very very hard to find
You can use the electric cart as a load tester. The best tester you can have . The HF tester only pulls around 50 amps. The cart will be asking for around 250 amps or more, when you step on the go pedal. And there is no reason to run the cart on jack stands for three hours. Hook your meter to the battery pack and drive the cart and see what the pack volts drop to. Then do the same thing with each battery. You will find your bad batteries
