ok, first, welcome to BGW!

now then..... DO NOT pull the relay off the board.

Unplug the charger from both the cart and the wall.
pull the 2 black wires out of the relay
hook the 2 black wires together (make sure they are not touching anything else)
plug the cord into the cart
last plug the cord into the wall.

Does the charger come on and show that the cart is taking a charge?

If so, either the PC board is bad or the thin red wire in the DC cord is bad.

Do a simple continuity test on the red wire. If there is continuity, the wire is fine and the PC board is bad.
