Club Car 2001 Charging Issue

[ScottClub]

After I washed my 48v club car is noticed the battery charger would peg the meter all the way and when I check the voltage of the batteries while charging the 2 batteries on the passenger side did not register have a charge applied to them. When the charger cut off charging the same 2 batteries did not have a full charge. So i swap out those 2 batteries with other one in the series and the same issue on the passenger drive batteries, so I know it was not bat batteries. What would cause this issue.

I would suspect a bad cable between those two batteries.

Leave all cables connected and make sure you have 48 volts from B+ to B- across the battery pack.

Check for voltage from battery post to battery post with each cable still connected. You should read 0 volts on each one.

Then wiggle and tug on each cable and see if you get any kind of volt reading. If you do, that cable or terminal is defective.

You can also remove each battery cable and ohm it on a low resistance scale while pulling on the wire. You should have close to 0 ohms if the cable and terminal connection is good.
