Battery overcharging
My battery on my 94 1/2 Ezgo is overcharging. Is that the starter generator pushing too many volts. Voltage regulator maybe?

Re: Battery overcharging
Voltage regulator problem...put a meter on battery, cart in neutral pedal down at full RPMs voltage should rise to between 14-15 volts give or take a little...

Re: Battery overcharging

Re: Battery overcharging
I just put a new voltage regulator on because it was putting out more the 16 volts. Now the cart wont even turn over.

Re: Battery overcharging
The fuse under the cover by the selenoid is still good. Is that the only one?
