It's amazing that all of your batteries are at 8.4, not 8.39, 8.41, etc.

On that analog gauge in the picture I didn't see any green scale or text.

One member here is offering their help by telephone... I sure hope you take him up on his generous offer, otherwise this and the other threads you've started might not be answered in the way you'd would like them to be answered!

One thing is right... the word frustrated... anyone there?

Scotty b and to all! I think I just figured out all of my problems.....I took all of my batteries out and checked them.they are all good.I just put all of them back in .Took out my 30 watt stereo.and drove around my hood! There is no smell,no boiling,and its charging.....I am sorry for all the trouble...I am going to check on it later to see if its all good.I really fell stupid,and I thank you scottyb for offering me your help.If this becomes a problem again,I will leave you my number!!!!

OK people. Lets transfer all of Rasta's problem solving ability to my issues at hand. I am not sure what's going on with my 94 ez marathon electric cart. I took the charger into a local cart shop and found nothing wrong. I tested all of the 6v batteries with a voltage meter and all were within 5.9 and 6.4. I am not the cart expert and can use all the advise possible.

Congrats Rasta!

Hello 1AZCart and Welcome to the forum.

1AZCart, try posting this in the E-Z elec. forum.........how many batteries are ynder 6 volts<? check your cables coming from the charge receptical and make sure all is very clean......where it plugs in and cord end from charger if you have to get a small file and clean that stuff up cause just a layer of dirt won,t allow contact, i don,t think 94 has a reed switch so if you have over 28 volts and charger is good it has to be in the connection or cables from the cart side plug.....................................
