Charge needle went to max for about a minute, then down to 1/2 for about 2 minutes, then to about 1/4.
I just now went down and switched the circuit breaker off that the charger is on, waited 10 minutes and only switched the circuit breaker back on and voila, the charger started charging again.
So I'm not sure about all of this because I'm just into golf carts for about a year and a half now, but I know what I am experiencing.

My PD2 operates this exact same way. It charges to battery capacity, then shuts itself off...if I unplug it from the wall and wait 30sec or so it will start charging again (pegs to 15 then quickly drops to about 5 for just a few min before turning off again).

I haven't torn apart the PD2 to see if it was modified but considering the cart came from a 1 owner 75 year old retiree that did absolutely nothing to the cart, I'd be surprised if it is.
