Re: Total Charger III
Haven't tried it yet. Got it with a cart that I bought as a parts cart. It was opened up to the weather alongside the controller, pot box and solenoid. Just wondering what sort of a charger they were. I am not familiar with this model. are they good, bad or just plain ugly?

Re: Total Charger III
Is it like this one? I am guessing it's just a 36v automatic charger...

Re: Total Charger III
It has a durable transformer, and durable diodes. If it doesnt work its probably the control board. OR >>> #1 thing to check, low cart battery pack voltage (24v or less). If the batts arent low voltage, and it starts and charges, keep it and use it, it is not a troublesome charger in my experience. This charger, and almost all automatic chargers wont turn on if the cart batteries are too low voltage.

It is a Ferroresonant Transformer type charger with automatic shutoff. The same basic charger has been produced under several brand names and other than the color of the case and faceplate and a few bells and whistles, they are the same charger. They are nearly indestructible and 100% repairable. However, if the transformer is bad, it is cheaper to buy a new charger. I'd pop the case, clean out the bird nests and let it dry out good before trying it. |

Re: Total Charger III
Jake snake's picture is the one. As for Johnny B's advice, I blew all birds nest and other crap out and will have to change ends before trying it. Have got it in a dry place for now. It has a different end on it and i haven't got time to change it at the moment. I am up to my ears trying to recover from bronchitis at the moment. Thanks for the info. Later, Gene

Re: Total Charger III
It probably wouldn't hurt to let it dry for a couple of days. Water may have made its way into the transformer windings, and may look dry on the outside but still be a little damp inside.
