Cart dies quick
I’m going to start by saying i’m Very new to carts so you might have to reply very simple to me.From what I found in wiring diagrams my cart is a 97-99 36V ds no serial number on cart. Anyway my cart takes off good but within a minute or so it dies and if I let it sit for a couple of minutes it goes again for another minute or so. I have three brand new 12v golf cart batteries in it any help would be appreciated

Re: Cart dies quick
If it’s 35.5, your batteries are at 30%. full charge would be 38. Have you drove the cart with the voltmeter to see how low the volts go to when it dies. Sounds like your cart is stopping cause it doesn’t have enough juice

Re: Cart dies quick
Review the attached state of charge chart, your batteries are less than 50% charged.

Re: Cart dies quick
Another thought; are these even golf cart batteries or just auto batteries??? There's definitely a difference between the two when it comes to golf carts.
