G16 Gas not charging
Hello all,
I have a G16 that I bought as a gift for my parents last spring. Over the summer I was working on it and bought a new clutch and tires and all, but all summer long the new battery wasnt taking a charge from the starter/gen. I bought a meter and I was checking the voltage of the battery (directly on the battery) when the cart was off and when it was idling and when it was open and running full out.. and I believe battery was registering 12.6, 11.4 and somewhere between 14 and 16 volts respectively.. but it still would drain the battery and then I'd would have to charge the battery after a riding in the cart for 20-30 mins with just normal driving around in the neighborhood. Is there another component that I could check with my voltage meter that has to do with the charging system? Thank you in advance for your input. If there is another part I can check instead of just replacing electronics I'd like to avoid having to buy the expensive parts like the starter.
