The plug looks right but it doesn’t look like the E.R.I.C. Charger I also have a 2014

thats what i thought. no wonder they had to put a set of batterys in a cart after 3 years use. so do i get aeric charger or just go aftermarket with say a yewy?

you would think the course would have the correct charger there somewhere...go back and get the correct one

Absolutely. Some flunky just gave you what was closest to him... Ask to see the fleet guy...

saw the fleet. they are switching to gas. have about 30 gas 30 electric. all chargers hang above the carts off the trusses. all chargers are the same. :thumbdown: guess thats why i got it for lower then going rate around here, that and it is getting to the end of the season.

Thats really weird. I'm not all knowing as others here but I think the 2014 use the ERIC charger which contains the "smarts" for charging. That charger you have is meant to work with an OBC (on-board computer which assesses charging requirements) which your 2014 does not have...

I'm not a CC guy so take what I say with caution. It's my understanding '14 was a changeover year with '14 production starting in mid '13. Apparently there are some OBC equipped '14 carts. Probably early models. I think this has come up once before on this forum. I have read that ERIC carts serial no. starts with JE.
Does this cart have an OBC?

That is a Lester charger. Lester is an old and well respected company as far as I know. Is the model no 26610? I would take it over most other chargers.

Verify with CC experts.

That is correct, the PH serial number indicates it is equipped with an OBC.

Club Car Precedent Excel cars manufactured from October 2013 to present have E.R.I.C. systems (2014 production year started in August 2013).

Sergio is right. PH indicates that this is the correct charger. JE would be the correct prefix for an ERIC-charger equipped car.
