Charger cable connectors

criley · 04-03-2015, 11:56 AM

Hey guys,

I'm replacing the connectors (both ends) on my golf cart and charger after one of the contacts got hot and melted the housing. It's a 36v old (1995) ezgo.

I want to make sure I get a good connection when I crimp the new contacts on.
Those contacts look like they are some kind of really hard metal.
Any recommendations from the pros?

Thanks!

I used a Harbor Freight hydraulic crimper with shrink tubing for my 2 gauge cables. It was fast and it worked perfectly.
