G5 means they are July of 2005 batteries that are nearing the end of their lives if they weren't maintained correctly and possibly even if they were, they'll be 5 years old in July. You and $600 will be parting ways in the near future !!!

You'll pretty much see all of the above ! You'll go from 27 to 18 holes, see less volts and the SG will be lower. You can always try that Ebay "miracle cure" to try and extend their life, I would if I was you because what do you have to lose ? When mine gets on their last leg, I'm going to try it just to see for myself. Epson Salt is cheap and most of the folks I've seen here that were against it seem to be shop owners/repair guys who just might be in battery sales also. I'm not saying it will work but if I try it, I'll know first hand.

I don/t think it's the batterys. new wires 6 months connections are good.
I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO TELL WHAT SYSTEM IT IS

FNR Switch is by my right leg
I have no information on how to turn on diagnostic mode.
I don't think it's the batterys.

Here is all there is to it. From batterys to solenoid Mounted on controler 37.2 volts.
Solenoid to controler with pedal down and key on 37volts .
By the way, no switch on cover. Wires go to fnr switch and motor
power at motor tests out to 5.2 volts.
