96 electric smoking battery posts
96 electric ez-go has completely melted the posts off of 2 new sets of golf cart batteries. When cart is used, the cables heat up and if not noticed in time, the battery posts completely melt down to nothing. I have had it to two golf cart repair places and they told me it was the batteries. Well, I have since then purchased two sets of batteries (at 1000.00 a pop) and I still have the same problem. So I need to find someone who knows what the hell they're talking about when it comes to golf carts. Thank you very much for your time.

bUT first how big a boy r U. Nobody tires to give out bad advice & it gets hard some times trying to come up with the right help, But hay I am going to try. So hi. They call me Dirty south? And I Suggest that you upgrade your battery cables to larger size. Motor cables also. Clean &Tighten all wire conation. And also could you post your total battery pack voltage. |

 I have always said NEVER ground any accessory on an electric cart to the frame. The frame will nbearly always have some voltage in it - 3 to 4 volts. I have seen some frames have nearly 36 volts in them - I was told that this is almost always related to "dust" in the motor... |

Re: 96 electric smoking battery posts
This cart is all original (except for batteries) no accessories of any kind attached, I know it's kind of strange, maybe I just need a new one. Thank you all for your time and help.
