Buggy1142 needs new batteries - be aware that continuing to run with weak batteries will cause amperage draw to spike drastically increasing heat in all components putting at risk the motor, controller, solenoid, and F&R

I hope this helps

I'm glad the OP was able to find his problem. However, this leads me to a thought, it seems to be some what common for some batteries to take a dump after a year. I would be super disappointed to find out that my 1 year old batteries were dropping on me. I understand that there are thousands of variables as to why batteries will die early, but it would still bum me out!

It should not be common at all, but since two batteries are low, I suspect he has them tapped for 12v accessories.

This is a common practice. In fact it was how the factory provided 12v. The problem with drawing 12v from 2 batteries is that these 2 batteries will be depleted further than the rest of the pack. It may be a slight difference at first but, the charger charges all of the batteries the same. Over time the 2 get lower and the rest get overcharged until they are all mismanaged. The result being a reduced useful life.
Get a good 25-30 amp voltage reducer with ignition cut off feature. We have 100s in stock.
