Re: Batteries issue/ 2006 club car precedent
Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to BGW. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, wives’, husbands, girlfriend’s and boyfriends here don't care....and take it easy.
oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here. Welcome!! |

If you want to reset the OBC, just flip your Run/Tow switch to Tow and then remove the main pack Negative cable for ~20 minutes and then reconnect it, flip the switch back to Run and plug the charge receptacle back into the cart. |

Re: Batteries issue/ 2006 club car precedent
I know this one. Let me, let me answer. Your charger meter is showing the "AMPS" going into your batteries and not volts. When your Batts are low the charger will initially provide high amperage. As the batteries charge, the amperage meter will drop. Fully charged batteries, with little or no use, when plugged in again will quickly show low amperage going from the charger into the batteries and will automatically shut off much sooner than a normal charging session.

Again, resetting the OBC is the best thing to do to give you back the confidence you seek. |

Re: Batteries issue/ 2006 club car precedent
Sounds like it's performing perfectly to me. Like SCCLT said, they meter is reading "amps" not volts. It's going to slowly drop to 0 and cut off when the batteries are fully charged.
