Re: electrical charge
just checked serial and model # 9804 so I guess its born date was April 98
I noticed at on point 2 hours ago the charger came on and stayed at around 5Vs than went back off and the light pattern started again. Book talks about charging for 16 hours first time. Am I just impatient. Don't want to ruin new batteries though |

Re: electrical charge
gil you may want to wait and break the batteries in it could be your OBC readjusting to the new pack so as long as they are charging and cart is running ok give the system time to recalibrate....................

Re: electrical charge
Thanks Tom
Not sure if they are charging. Charger cuts out after a few minutes and light show begins. Dont want to run them low and do any more damage |

Re: electrical charge
if your charger is shutting off after a few minutes than you have a problem........it should stay on for at least a few hours and longer with new batteries................check in the stickies for the OBC reset and try it post when finished if charger stays on longer.............................
