Re: Power drive 2 charger not coming on...
Have you checked the fuse in the yellow fuse holder behind the charger receptacle?

Re: Power drive 2 charger not coming on...
My batteries are not cart batteries per say, the are deep cycle gel and they come to us fully charged. When I installed them the pack was reading 51.3 volts.

Could the charger know the batteries are not flooded wet cell?

Re: Power drive 2 charger not coming on...
Glad you brought that up. It is my understanding that Gel cell batteries need a different kind of charger..something to do with the charging algorithm for the rate of charge, I don't think it would keep the charger from starting to charge though. In the beginning it just reads the voltage to start.

Re: Power drive 2 charger not coming on...
I agree, I think the gel batts need a different type of charger...

Re: Power drive 2 charger not coming on...
UPDATE
plugged in replacement charger and it kicked on in about 5 seconds. Jumped to about 12.5 amps at first (around 1pm) and now (5:30 pm) it's humming along at about 10 amps. First hurdle crossed. Now to break these batteries in and see what they're capable off. Thanks for all the input fellas. Oh on a side note the lift kit and rims came in today! Now to find some free time |
