after winter storage won't run
After storing our Club car over the winter and after a Battery charge it won't run when I push the accelerator I can hear the solenoid click twice in rapid secession and the car gently bumps forward when in reverse it will continue to try to run but nothing more than a gentle bump. Ran Fine last Fall. Any help would be much appreciated As I have a very upset Wife on my hands Camping season in fast approaching and I can't have the Queen of the campground walking.

Re: after winter storage won't run
From the sounds of it you did not leave your cart plugged into a charger all winter? Then you return to it and charged it up? Are you sure that it is charged? Report those voltages to us, what are they? Leaving batteries alone all winter can/will be a death nil.

Re: after winter storage won't run
Your batteries are not good - probably your problem. Letting them get that low causes sulphation which increases the impedance and prevents the batteries from generating the necessary current under load. Load test them and they will fail that test!

Re: after winter storage won't run
Looking at that least 3 of your batteries are very likely bad and any time I see carts with 12 volt batteries I have to ask are they 12 volt GOLF CART batteries? Many times people replace batteries with marine deep cycles or worse yet automotive batteries.
