I plug the charger in and I do not have any noise or humming coming from it and the needle does not move.

I just fixed my Lestronics II charger for my Par Car. In my case it happened to be a relay. In my case the troubleshooting guide I had was a bit off so I called their support line. They were very helpful.

They also have some guides online with schematics that were helpful.

What is the pack voltage? Have you checked the fuse in the yellow holder behind the carts charger receptacle ? Check the house wall plug with another appliance or tool?

Scottyb.... There is no yellow fuse holder on a 36V car... You're on the right track though..

If the cart runs... check for voltage at the charger receptacle. It should be somewhere around 32-38Volts... Anywhere in that neighborhood is great... If you have voltage, I'd replace the relay or relay/timer, whatever may apply with your charger.

I had to bring the battery voltage up with a 12 volt car charger on each set of batteries 3 times once the voltage was up the charger started working.
Thanks to all who had replied.
I new the 48 volt chargers did ths but I didn't know it was the same for the 36 volt automatic chargers.
I told my friend not to run the batteries down below 50 percent. We don't want to go through this again.

Any ideas? I bypassed the timer, I bypassed the capacitor, checked continuity, still get nothing.
