Default Charger won't kick on

ok guys, the same guy who does not have a run/tow switch on an 09 Precedent.

Installed my lights yesterday and disconnected both the neg and pos, in that order from the battery pack and did not have the ability to put in the tow mode. Everything went fine. When I hooked the battery pack back up, positive first, negative last, I got a spark on the neg side, which seemed normal. Everything was normal, lights worked, cart worked fine. When I plugged the charger back in, had a continual flash on the battery light on the cart. Having previously owned a GEM car, thought the flashing was just a sign the batterys were fully charged and possibly overcharged. Unplugged the charger and left it over night. Played 18 holes today, when I got home, plugged in the charger and nothing. Checked the batteries, 4X12, and two were reading 12.4 and two 12.3 vs. fully charged 12.7 to 12.8. Total Voltage is 49,2 after running today.

Tried the reset from the forum and still nothing. Not sure if the obc is toast because of the disconnect and reconnect without the tow mode.

HELP!!!!!!!

Thanks

Shadowman,

Thanks for the response, just got back in from going through the battery compartment, and low and behold, emabarrasment, operator error. Positive wire from charger receptacle was down behind the battery's and not conntected to positive post. Duh, shows how smart I am not, missed hooking it back up yesterday when I did the light installation. Will never make that mistake again. LOL

thanks again
