I have another charger coming late today..... I will have some more info later... Roady sent me googling around for transformer and capacitor tests... So I will post what I find ...
I truely suspect this poor cart has a bad obc and bad charger .... did I mention the bad batteries? Ouch!

I have seen that happen to,I had a customer that had a lightning strike at his house that went through the car and charger and OBC.I can type in how to check transformer if you want.

THat would help I read some general descriptions but I'm still not sure upon where to test? I could post pics of my charger minus the lid?

I didn't want to end up like Roady's new friend

With people faxing me at all hours of the night

..... and don't call me spotty like some cheap 2G network

But I will take calls from people with Club Car Powerdrive wiring diagrams or testing proceedures

I have the 1997 Maintenance Service Supplement for Club Car Gas/Electric Vehicles in a PDF file. I can send it to you if you would like. It may be too big for an e-mail but I could try.

Does it have charger diagnostics in it?

TDAWG · 02-05-2010, 09:04 PM

For the charger section, the 97 supplement says that you need the 95-96 supplement. And yes, I have that one too. I just checked it and it does have the Powerdrive charger section.

Can you post the diagnostics here?
