2004 TXT Warm Wires
Hello all I am new to golf carts and to this forum. I recently purchased a 2004 EZGO TXT 36volt. All batteries were replaced as were the battery cables. I have never touched them but yesterday I stopped to look at something while riding and noticed the battery cables were warm and the longer wire was warmer than the others. I have not had any issues and when I parked it and checked it 3-5 mins later they were no longer warm. Like I said new wires and they are all tight.
Thank you, Carnell |

Re: 2004 TXT Warm Wires
What gauge wires, and what type? (Hope it's not these auto parts store junkers)

Re: 2004 TXT Warm Wires
Also, not the "9 strand" stuff from home Depot for house wiring, right?

Re: 2004 TXT Warm Wires
Figured out it was only the longer battery wire getting hot. It is 4 gauge can I replace just that one with a 2 gauge?

Re: 2004 TXT Warm Wires
Make sure the nuts are secure to the batteries. If they are not on tight it can cause issues. I melted a battery post because of it.
