90 Club car charging question

mrtbone49 · 04-05-2008, 01:00 AM

Hello....When I plug the charger into the cart it makes a loud buzzing noise? Is that telling me its fully charged? I have replaced all batteries and havent played 18 yet so maybe that is what the noise is for? thanks for the help.

I have found that the charger will stop buzzing and shut off when the batteries are charged

That is correct, modern automatic chargers will shut off when the batteries reach full charge. The buzzing sound you hear is coming from the the tranformer inside the charger and tells you it is working. No noise = not charging. New batteries should be recharged fequently or after 1/2 normal use for the first 10 cycles or so. This is an important step to properly 'breaking in' a new set. Protect your investment..

So I have to live with the loud buzzing?

It should not be too loud. Some chargers are louder than others.

You can jamb toothpicks or popsicle sticks into the wiindings of the transformer and it will quiten it down.........yes really, no joke. LOL!
