I have it on a charger right now so hopefully when I get to the campground ok Saturday it will run.

I'm hoping you are all correct and it is just the batteries being dead.

Thanks.

8.00 volts is dead.

Tell us the age and history of each battery. Were they all bought new and are they all the same make/model/Amp-Hour rating? After charging has completed with a real golf cart charger turning off automatically - a tender is almost worthless - tell us what each battery reads to two decimal points, 12 hours after charging has completed. A good 8 volt battery should read 8.49 or so, depending on brand.

After answering JohnnyB's questions and those above, a history will really help us. Did you buy it new? Did it ever work? What caused it to stop working? Does solenoid click? WHeels turn while on jack stands, etc. Here's how to tell drive type.
