I'm still getting the 10/4 seconds intervals on my warning light. In the Powerdrive manual, it says contact Club Car dealer for this. I have the 17930 model with new relay & heatsink and by all accounts it's charging normally. Every time time I check the pack after a charge & several hours rest, it's 51-52V which is good for newer batteries (July 2016), from what I've read here. Has been as high a 54.5V right after a charge.
I've also reset the OBC several times. No batteries are out of balance and all are in good shape with proper amount of acid/water. I've not drove the cart enough to establish how much run time I can get.

I have watched the needle on charger gauge a few times at end of charge cycle and I've never seen it get below 8 Amps. Charger cuts off at @8 amps. I would have thought amp gauge would slowly trend down to zero? Maybe, it's not fully charging? I'm not certain what I'm looking for, but being OCD, the light bothers me and leads me to think something is not right.
