G16E diode and fuse problem
 
Cart started stopping and starting intermittently. Then stopped and wouldn't start. Found a blown 10amp fuse and then found corrosion in both diode connectors. The upper connector (nearest the fuse) had completely disintegrated and the diode had continuity in both directions. With the lower connector the diode prongs broke off when I pulled the diode out.

A question. Do I need the white plastic connector or can I just wire in the new diodes when I get them? I can't find the part number for the wires with connectors. Thanks.

See attached G16E schematic. The diode connectors are not important. You can install the diodes directly into the harness in any manner that is convenient. Of course you must maintain the correct polarity and diode rating. You may find that some other problem with the cart caused the 10A fuse to fail.

Thanks, that's the answer I was looking for. diodes are expensive little things, esp. w shipping.
