hey scub,
thanks for the help! its a 2001 club car DS. i took the panel off and say two wires connected to something behind the dash...dont know what it is...not sure if those are the wires that you are speaking of.. and just for wondering sake could you indeed just replace the indicator wires and it work correctly? thanks again! nick |

Re: VOLT METER INSTALL...can i just replace the battery light indicator?
the indicator is just a light bulb and a lense (and in some cases, also a IR transmitter). a signal is sent to the bulb from the OBC when it needs to indicate a problem. a volt meter needs to see pack + and pack - (at a minimum) to work. so chances are, you would be able to use one of the two wires, but not both.
so in a nutshell, the meter is not a direct drop-in replacement for the bulb. -sj |
