Charging problem

[monepit]

Hey guys, I need some advise. My charger won't kick on. I went to charge it last night and nothing. I just completed a total mod of the cart last night. Everything's done but she won't charge. It still runs fine. Pack voltage is at 49.6. Just no click in the charger when it's plugged in. One thing, when I was installing the new dash, I accidentally hooked up the wire for the battery charge idiot light t o the buzzer, it buzzed real quietly for a second and I realized my mistake and removed it and put the right wire on it. I hope I didn't fry the obc but I don't know. Any help on troubleshooting would be appreciated. It charged fine last time I plugged it in.

Monepit,

I have issue's sometimes with my charger(s) on every problem I've had it's been as simple as the cord conection to the charger or garbage/debri in the plug hole on the cart. Just a thought.
Good luck...
Steve

Problem solved. Thanks to the stickies I checked the wiring diagram for my cart and apparently when I changed the body I had to remove the charge port. For some reason I ran the red wire to the negative side of the pack instead of the positive. Rookie mistake. I haven't been home to fix it and see if it hurt anything but looking at the diagram both charge port wires were just hooked to the neg side so hopefully it didn't hurt the obc. We'll see.

Update. I put the red wire on the right post last night and everything worked fine. Thank God. I didn't want to replace an obc.
