99 Club Car battery issue

Put your volt meter on that battery. Use clips or something to hold the meter led's on the battery. Drive the cart and watch the voltage on the meter. If it drops very much, anything below 8.0 volts will be a bad battery. Sometimes you can kill a battery to where it will not recover it you keep using it and not charging it back up, even if it is Only a week or so old.
