If you get it to about 40 and the cart charger still won't kick on, try one more thing. Hook your 12 volt charger to the lowest of your 8 volt batteries. Goosing that one to 12 volts (just a trickle / low amps) should bring it up enough to turn on the charger. If not, then it's probably time to think about batteries first, then maybe a charger.
