Install New Batteries 2007 EZGO TXT
 
I tried to do a search, but couldn't find anything. I'm about to install new batteries in my cart. Is there any special way to install them? Should the wires be removed and reattached in a specific pattern? Any help would be great. Thanks.

Here is the battery wiring diagram. No particular order to remove and replace.
Just be careful about loose cable ends and tools, you are working on an arc welder. :mrgreen:

Be sure to give them a full charge before using them and to break them in properly to get max storage capacity.
Here is how: http://www.cartsunlimited.net/Batter...n_Methods.html
While on website, read everything with "Battery" in title. Lost of good info.

You can download the Owner, the Service and the Parts manuals for your cart here: http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/elect...g-manuals.html
They are the three .pdf files near top.

I have found it easier to remove the battery that is closest to the front of the cart first. Then the rear battery, as you have to angle it slightly to clear the body. Make sure you get a battery strap like below...

Also, if you have some smaller wires attached to the terminals tape them to the bigger main wires so they don't fall down and you forget them. A sees lots of stories about stuff not working after a battery change and it is usually due to forgetting a wire.

New Trojan batteries installed and ScottyB's Digital Meter (which I highly recommend). Thanks for the help.
