Re: Low battery light dimly lit, warm batteries...why?
Turns out this thread goes hand in hand with another thread I had, but the resolution was the same. Bad batteries. Despite being only 26 months old, the Crowns I had were junk. When I bought the cart, the dealer told me that the previous owner had passed away and that his wife was dumping the cart. In hindsight I question if eiher a) the cart wasn't plugged in and the batteries were dead or b) the dealer slapped in some "good used". The cart worked perfectly until it didn't. Charging the batteries made them scalding hot and super stinky, and in my other thread, Sergio suggested that they were no good. I put in a good used set of Trojans and it alleviated the problem. I called the dealer and while I had hoped he would warranty the batteries out, he at least sold me a set of new batteries stupid cheap. They're only Crown 150s, but for the price I paid ($550) I'm ok with it. I redid the battery and motor cables with some 2 gauge while I was in there, and so far so good. Drove it all around last night, including all out 27mph runs, and everything was cool and good. Thanks for all of the tips, you two.
