What’s the truth?
My EZGO Elec dash meter reads 50 % gone,
But a volt meter Reads 50.8 volts and that is only 10% gone. What am I missing? |

Re: What’s the truth?
Agreed. The factory dash meters are notoriously inaccurate. Don't know if I've ever seen one that agrees with my meter.

Re: What’s the truth?
I’m planning on replacing mine with a voltmeter instead. Then I can confirm that the volts there match my voltmeter

The factory gages in the RXV (and others) are frequently wrong for a variety of reasons and should always be varied/checked against a working volt/multimeter. When in doubt the multimeter is right but still only a guide. |

Re: What’s the truth?
Given that you are in the Villages I would recommend a complete sweep and clear of all info on this forum. A anonymous HOA member may find this and immediately report you for having an incorrect meter on your cart!! lol. jk I would trust the voltmeter not the dash.

Re: What’s the truth?
When we bought our used 2016 RXV we were wisely told the SOC meter in the dash was for entertainment purposes only.
