Re: charger arches at battery plug
If it arcs and then charges it is probably on when it is plugged in, meaning it may have the delay start relay bypassed inside the charger? A draw or a short will cause an arc.

Re: charger arches at battery plug
It is likely the polarity has been reversed at the charger or the cart. Scottyb
