Voltmeter 2008 precedent
have the newer style digital voltmeter on my precedent. It is wired to always stay on, even when not using cart. Is this ok or would it be better to wire to keyswitch, This voltmeter on has 2 wires (- and +) does not have a separate wire for key switch.
i thought i read that wiring the + to key switch might not be as accurate as running directly to the pack |

Re: Voltmeter 2008 precedent
There is a black and red wire behind the dash near the dummy/battery light. You can use those two as the feed/input. Know that you’ll be about .3 x .5 volts lower on the reading versus the true pack voltage. Do this and the cart volt meter will only be on when Cart is in run and not in tow.

Re: Voltmeter 2008 precedent
My $0.02 is too wire it off batteries and be able to keep an eye on it. Even if you don’t drive your cart daily, like myself; your proaobably in your garage almost daily and will notice if something’s not right. Generally I keep my cart on the charger but if I don’t I will notice wothin 24 hours cause I glance at my voltmeter when I’m in the garage also one time I found my cart abnormally low because my brake light switch went out of adjustment and they stayed on during the day. For the small amount of power they burn I like to keep it on all the time and that’s one of the ones that tells you actuall voltage not the battery charge meter.
