1994 Club Car Ds Shuttering when put in forward and reverse
 
94 Club car
(A9429-389907)

Just picked up a 94 Club car Ds that was not working. Went over it and charged the batteries up. Everything looks to be okay to the eye..

Although when I went to move the cart it shutters really bad, almost like it’s not going in gear or the back tires are spinning.

Where should I start first? Totally new to the game of golf carts

Thank you in advance

This is typically a sign of low battery voltage. Measure the voltage of your battery pack by taking a reading across all of the batteries with a multimeter. Main positive to Main negative. These would be the first positive in the series and the last negative.

Some reason it keep jumping back and forth between 26-32 volts with the key on.

Looks like new batteries I’m guessing...

Something is not right with your meter, or your batteries. Test them individually and see what you get. Post results.

Reading with key off I got 34 steady this time. But all the batteries were a 4-5 volts each so I’m not sure what the deal is.

Like I said I’m new to golf carts but am fully capable of repairing what needs fixed/customized

Batteries are extremely weak. They're six volt batteries and in fully charged state should show just over 6 volts each.
