Good morning thank you for a very informative video. My question is, my charger is charging,but when I first plug it in the amp meter does not go to zero in the first five seconds of being plugged in. It goes straight to 18 or so and in 12 hours it gets to around five and stays there and never cuts the charger off. Thank you Pat
Normally it’s a battery issue. Has the charger been working good the whole time. And this problem just started. Also, have you checked the water in batteries.
Help. I moved and the movers damaged my charger. I replaced the power cord, capacitor and 50a fuse. All checked good yesterday. I plugged it in 9.25.22 and nothing. Screwdriver across the two relay terminals and it arced. What do I do now? I checked the battery voltage last week. 4-6v. Water levels were low and I added water. I think they must have banged it really hard. The power cord terminals were bent. It worked fine the day before I moved and had a final full charge the morning of the move. It's been sitting waiting for the charger to be repaired for 1 month now.
When it arced did charger come on. If so did you bypass the black wire from board to the tan wire from dc cord on transformer. If you bypassed wire. Then you have a bad module board.
I have a Yamaha charger(2015 drive) that starts off showing red and yellow lights like it’s charging ( clicks like it starting to charge) Few hours later or next morning I go back to check on it and all the lights on the charger are blinking together. I checked all the batteries and they are good. Any suggestions?
Thanks for the video! The wire with the red connector on mine broke when I tried to pull the connector apart. I spliced a new wire, charger work fine now!
my charger stopped working. relay was bad. replaced the board with new and now it charges but will not kick offand it now seems like its overcharging. what could be my issue? it was fine before the board went bad
@@brettl6747 my bad was to supposed to say oem. Meaning a factory board. Not one off Amazon. Also do you have water in the batteries. How long are you keeping it charg? Do you have a power wise one charger or 2?
I do keep water in batteries. It is not an oem board. I am also not sure which power wise it is but it did have the 2 boards that I replaced with the 1 board so I would assume it's the power wise 1. I tested the batteries voltage with no load and they read 38v and each battery tested 6.5v. I need to jack it up and test it under load. Could you tell me where to get a good oem board? The one I bought was from Amazon and I have a feeling it's defective. Thanks
I'm tearing my hair out on this problem. My Ezgo charger won’t charge the cart - the meter shows zero amps. The charger turns on when plugged in and the internal parts all seem to check out - transformer has current, diodes have current, capacitor looks good, continuity for wires in the cable from charger to battery terminals is good. I bypassed the charger meter and still no juice to the batteries. Batteries seem good - I can charge them independently and they hold a charge. Any ideas?
OK so I jumped the relay and I got some sparking when I did it but the meter doesn’t move. But it does hum. What’s bad on it, the board or the capacitor? Thanks for the great video.
@watchmebarf also if you jumped the relay. The first thing I would check is make sure you have battery voltage on the dc cord The cord coming from the batteries
@@ryangill4254 watch the video and go through go to the 3 minute and 21 seconds point. It will show you how to check it and make sure you’re on the right spot and come back. Let me know because would you only have 4.2 bolts AC that ain’t good that shows you got a weak transformer or it could be a diode but watch the video on the mark I told you and let me know what you find.

What type of cart is it and what type of charger
Also, do you have water in your batteries? And how old are your batteries?
Same as yours. Power wise ezgo. Yes batteries test good static and under load.
Two year old batteries
Normally it’s a battery issue. Has the charger been working good the whole time. And this problem just started. Also, have you checked the water in batteries.
Thanks for the video! Where can I get a circuit board at thanks!
I would just go online and order them from amazon

@@Golfcartwhisperer no it did not.
@@Golfcartwhisperer woo-hoo. Thank you 😊 💓. The board IS BAD.
Good glad I could help!!

Probably bad charger

Good glad you got it working
So the yellow is the negativeand black is pos.?
. Black is negative
my charger stopped working. relay was bad. replaced the board with new and now it charges but will not kick offand it now seems like its overcharging. what could be my issue? it was fine before the board went bad
Did you replace it with an own board also how old are the batteries
I did replace the Board, and the batteries are about 3yrs old
Not sure what own is tho

Great video! Mine hums and needle barely move over but never charges.
Replace capicator

Do you have the same charger as in video
I have the Ezgo PowerWise II, Model 602718, Date code 3005, SN 300503352
@@briansmith6824 they are bad for capacitors going out
@@briansmith6824 do you have volt meter
@@briansmith6824 what your explaining sounds like capacitor or transformer
Thank you. Jumping the relay got it to charge. I'll see if I can find a new circuit board.
Yea sir thanks for watching. Like and subscribe. You can get them online for cheap

@watchmebarf if it’s a charger like in the video above. Replace cap
@watchmebarf also if you jumped the relay. The first thing I would check is make sure you have battery voltage on the dc cord The cord coming from the batteries
Show me the wires and where they go in a power wise battery charger
Did you find the wiring diagram yet. If. Or send me your email and will send it to you
Looks like I have a bad capacitor. Thanks!
@@ryangill4254 yes sir thanks for watching man. What’s your charger doing.
I replaced the capacitor but still same result. Charger hums but gauge doesn't move
@@ryangill4254 put your volt meter on ac voltage
Put one lead on the diode and the other lead on back of the amp meter and tell me what you get
@@Golfcartwhisperer if I'm on the right spot, 4.7v

Show me the wire and where they go
Tell me what wires and will tell you where they go
2 years old batteries
In your charger is the module board bypassed is it
I will be opening up the cover today to check. Thank you for always responding.
Let me know if have any questiojs
Show me the wires and where they go
What wires do you want to know about and I’ll tell you
