Default Slow Club Car Precedent

Hey everyone! Just picked up a 15 CC Precedent (JE Serial, Excel) and the thing seems to be super slow. I've read through most of the form posts on the subject, tested the speed sensor (fine), and the batts are newer (few years). Before I go spend more $$ on an MCOR or new controller, I wanted to at least ask for ideas. I'm a total noob in this world, so any help would be much appreciated!

What voltage are your batteries? Total voltage and individual may show a problem.

Great idea, I'll check this afternoon after full charge. Anything under 48 would mean bad batteries, correct? Again, total noob here.

Sometimes a total noob doesn't know that you need to add distilled water to the batteries. About the voltage, It should be 51v after charging and sitting a few hours.

That I did know. [emoji16] All topped off when I bought it a few days ago. But I will check the voltage when its juiced up. Thank you!

For future reference, this chart will come in handy. Another member on here put it together. Johnnie_Bbattery%.jpg
