Headlight issue

420ma · 05-13-2018, 05:53 PM

When I wire my lights on to the batteries the cart won't move, when I disconnect them works great. I have a 48 to 12 reducer. It's a cheapy....could that be the issue.

Since it works fine after disconnected again, I would say so. Where do you have the reducer connected? (direct to batteries? Batteries and key switch?)

Yes connected directly to batteries and positive through a switch.

so when you flip the switch to on the cart stops moving? Are your batteries dead? If it is causing that I would think the magic smoke would be coming out somewhere.

Batteries are brand new. it's just a matter of when the lights are hooked up the cart doesn't run. When I disconnect from battery it runs.

so it runs with the reducer connected and turned on but if you hook up the lights it quits running?
