Re: 2002 EZGO will not charge

The fact that the Anmeter does not deflect nor does the voltage increase during the short period of time that the charger is running in bypassed mode leads me to believe you need a replacement charger. It sounds like the transformer has given up the ghost on your current one and a transformer will cost you more than a replacement charger. |

Nearly all the info I have can be found here on the forum. I just filter it through a long and diverse set of experiences (that includes teaching electronics and troubleshooting) and try to present it in a more clear and concise manner than it is sometimes presented here. Please don't take that to mean I am bad mouthing anyone here, especially not Rabbit and Scotty, (they've probably forgotten more than I'll ever know about carts) but I've been reading schematics, wiring diagrams, flow charts and tech manuals most of my adult life and if I can't figure out what is being said, I suspect others might be having difficulties with it also.

Sorry if I caused any confusion. How to check an ammeter. The ammeter is in series with the output circuit, so you check it the same way you checked the fuse, with an ohmmeter. You can't tell if it giving you accurate amp readings that way, but you can tell if it is conductive and that is what is needed to complete that portion of the series circuit. I was called away yesterday and it looks like you found out the bad news. |

Re: 2002 EZGO will not charge
You guys are awesome!
I really appreciate your time and expertise helping me trouble shoot my cart. The more I learn and understand about my golf cart the more I will enjoy it in the end. Seriously, great job and very much appreciated! Now off to research the forum for the best replacement charger... Thanks again! Mike |

Re: 2002 EZGO will not charge
P.S. Highflyer, I hope you can better understand now why when you first called why I was so reluctant to delve into teaching diagnostics over the phone as I have such a limited time in each day with the forum, an internet business, and a local repair shop to tend.
As I said there are 30,000 members and while they don't all log on (943 in a day is the record now) all have contributed to the forum archives and many many valuable members like these guys here ~ deserve a hug for the work they do for free here.... |

Re: 2002 EZGO will not charge
ScottyB,
Hey, I understood before I hung up the telephone with you... I even understand a whole lot better now. Thanks again! I will be calling back, however, most likely for a controller next time... Thanks again! Mike |
