cart always dwawing from battery, not charging

[fastassdmax]

Hi this is my first time posting but i have been reading this forum for quite awhile. I have learned a lot of great info from here and I really appreciate everyones knowledge here.

I have a 95 club car that continuously draws from the battery when running. I have been reading a lot of post about not charging and most people end up changing the voltage regulator. I have taken apart the starter and cleaned up everything in there and made sure all the connections were good. Is the voltage regulator the next thing to change??

Thanks,
Jesse

Put the cart in maintainance mode, run the engine, and while running disconnect the positive battery cable. If the cart dies it is probably the voltage regulator OR the starter/generator ($$$).

you can also with a voltage meter put on the battery start cart in maintence mode and at start up your battery may drop to 11.7 volts normal........but as your gassing it up it should read between 13.7 volts to 15.5 volts at WOT if its under or higher than replave V.R.....................................
