Melted battery terminal

hawksr30 · 07-27-2020, 05:46 PM

2003 EZ GO TXT. Had some issues the last week with my cart stutering when taking off and then loosing charge quickly and dying. After researching some more and seeing several references to a melted battery terminal I checked and sure enough. Question - I obviously need to replace that battery and am going to replace all the cables. Anything else I need to do or check?

Buy 6 batteries. Mixing old and new batteries quickly reduces new batteries to the electrical equivalent of the old batteries.

How badly is the terminal melted? It may be repairable and save you loads of money.
