can someone tell me about a charger

[falconer_39]

i have a 91 ezgo marathon
my charger is a textron total charge charger
and the thing will come on for a few minits and turn back off
when i check the pack it shows 36.7 when i check each battery i get 3 that is 6.1,6.3 and 6.4 on the other is 6.0 ,5.9 and 5.5
ok with these number the charger should come on and stay on till a full charge but it will not and when you drive the cart you can go maybe a half a mile then it crocks you get it back to the house and check the battries and all are showing about the same thing the lowest one will be about 4.o will that make it die like that
i have changed the wires and its not no better
so can that one battery be the down fall of my cart
thanks for the help

Yes... the battery is probably dead and the other 5.9 is suspect.... the charger may be another problem. Is there another cart you can try the charger on or another charger you can try somewhere? Refer to the battery state of charge chart below and remember that the manufacture says to never draw the pack down below 50% ... Sounds like you are draining your batts too much.

i am with scotty i would check the charger on another cart if it works good then batteries if not is is the relay on the circut board in the charger replace the board they are about 60 bux but check the charger on another cart first
