No, leave them connected.

If your using a 12V charger go from the - post on one to the + post on the next on.

I'm not sure what kind of cart you have, but here is how to do it on a TXT and Medalist.

I am just curious, but if the relay in the charger is clicking, doesnt that mean the charger is reading enough voltage from the pack?

Yes, has to be about 28-30V to turn on a 36V golf cart charger.

Batteries have probably set a month or so since this thread was initiated, so they probably not clicking relay in charger now.

A couple of weeks ago, I finally decided to tackle this issue here. So, I pulled the cart and charger back out and connected everything to see what was happening. Only difference this time was I took the seat off. Low and behold when the charger clicked, it sparked the positive battery terminal where the charger lead comes in. I unplugged everything and tried the cables and they were loose. I tightened the cables and plugged the charger back in and everything worked as it should.

Moral to the story: always apply the KISS principle.

Thanks to all that gave me suggestions as to what it might be.
