That's so disappointing with the battery. But the lessons learned and experience is something you have gained moving forward. There's always a silver lining!
I know that cart will be in great shape before summer !!!
I had the same speakers as yours arrive yesterday, one of them was broken, the plastic around the screw that holds the magnet broke away, during shipping I'd assume.
You can take the grills off, It's not really easy, but can be done, I'll have to solder the tweeter wires back on when I refit them. I'm paining mine black ATM. Just finished doing the first coat.
I pulled the grill off the first speaker that i pulled out of the box, so couldn't return them after finding out the other speaker was broken, so just ordered another pair.
Nice looking cart
Love the color
Ugh.. sorry on the battery. Reminded me I need to re-rivet my track roof too. All that noise drives me crazy. I have rubber on all the mounts but yeah.. rattles at those rivets.
As usual, great video. I love how you'll show the good, bad, and ugly of fixing up golf carts on TH-cam. You keep it real world and legit.
It's my understanding that true OEM MCOR 4's aren't actually being made anymore and haven't been for some years. If you find an "OEM" MCOR 4 and read the fine print on the website listing it almost always says something like "Made to OEM standards". Is it a better MCOR than the 10LOL Chinese brand on Amazon? Probably. But we shouldn't have to pay OEM prices for something that isn't actually OEM. Personally, I replaced my OEM MCOR 4 with the 10LOL brand MCOR on my golf course sourced Precedent over 3 years ago and it's still going strong. Even if it turns out to be something I have to replace every 3-4 years, I can do that over 15 years before I get to the equivalent price of one of these (non) OEM MCOR 4's. I probably won't even have this cart in 15 years.
Exactly what you encountered with UNO battery is why I don't have a Lithium battery in my cart. That 5, 6, 8, etc. year warranty that all these companies are advertising is only good if the company remains in business. When you have manufacturers like Uno, Extreme Team, etc. just abruptly go under, abandoning all their customers and warranties on their products, that quickly makes Lithium not a good upgrade.
At 12:10, you are talking about the 8 button switch. I think I would use some 2 part epoxy to attach it to the textured plastic after you drill the hole for the cable.
Only problem is if you ever to remove it then it’s stuck. I think the bracket I made with the double sided tape is the ticket.
I also had a UNO in my Yamaha drive 2. My friend bought his first and I installed it for him. Than another friend also bought one and I installed his. I got jealous and bought one for myself. They were very expensive also . Long story short UNO replaced all three because of issues we had. They were great about it but I began to worry because 3 for 3 aren’t good odds. Then we found out they went out of business and I was getting about 12 miles or so and had to recharge the battery. I wound up putting it in a DS that I flipped while it was still working. I bought a 48 v 105 ah Varner after watching your video and love it. I could get between 40 -50 miles on a charge if I pushed it. Love the gauge also and it was a $1000 cheaper than what I paid for the UNO. My friends still have theirs but at least I can give them options when the UNO quits thanks to you. Why don’t you throw a Big Battery in there, I saw you had a bunch of them in your garage. Varner’s are a a little big.
I’m going to open this one up soon. Probably will be on camera. Maybe we can see what failed and maybe fix it. I have the big batteries for some else. 2 are 72v that will probably live in my gem. 2 48v will go into a different cart.
@@Fentertainmentamigo habla español, soy de Panamá y necesito accesoria porfavor. Tengo un club cart.
I’ll be interested in how you’ll get inside that thing , looking forward to it.
I'm in the same boat with my lithium battery. It's Extreme Team that I bought a couple years ago. They since went out of business. I'm riding it out as long as i can.....
I have the same roof, I drilled out the rivets and used 4mm Phillips head screws (will have to recheck size, this was over a year ago) with rubber washers. No more noise!
I was thinking of doing the same thing as those rivets get loose and just squeak!
I have an Extreme Team lithium battery, too. They sent the "indoor" charger with it instead of the onboard outdoor charger. When I contacted them to have them send the onboard charger I ordered (and paid for), wasn't able to get anyone to respond. Company went out of business, but battery still working 3 years later. Others who purchased Extreme Team haven't been so lucky.
@markpyskadlo7576 I've heard the stories and am planning on biting a new bms for when mine fails. I had my original onboard charger fail about a year ago and bought a really good one through a solar company. Had to change the charge port to a 115v plug but it's been solid. I can look up that info for u if ur interested.
Thanks
For the hole in the back… use that laser and cut a acrylic plate with your logo on it
How are you going to read my mind and let everyone know! Great minds think alike! Add some leds to make it edge lit as well.
What kind of acrylic laser/cutter do you have?
Maybe you can do a teardown video on the UNO battery and see if you can replace the BMS?
Just need to get some that newer style locking velcro strip with 3m sticky on bottom works in hot and freezing temps
I had some 3m but it ran away I guess. Not sure if it was outdoor rated or not. I might update this or cut another bracket with the holes for the unit.
I have a 48v 2012 Club Car and I replaced the batteries for one 48v lithium, it won’t run. Does Club Car also have this reed switch or am I missing 12v to the key switch? I don’t have DC to DC converter do I need one for the key switch and F&R ? Would really appreciate your help with this.
Video time @13:15. Interested in the NO CO EZGO adapter plate you made. I could use one if available from you or some other source. Also just added a BigBattery Falcon Elite 48v to my Ezgo 2018 48v golf cart. According to tech support at BigBattery I have to leave the charging port wired into the bus bars to get the cart to work and it does. My problem is moving the old charging port inside the cart and adding a NoCo GCP1 port in its place. I need to cover the old opening with something like you made.
If you have the D shape plug then the one I made is in the video description with link. If your plug is the triangle one then this one won’t work but I will have those soon.
Where do I find the link for the NoCo adapter plates you made
I shipped out out today with usps. I just updated ebay with the shipping info. Thanks Again. @@dennisbudreau232
It happens to me all the time. I’ve been fighting a g22 gas cart for months it will run fine for 2 minutes then it gets to sputtering and cuts out. I’ve threw a lot of parts at it. I’m about to yank everything out and run a predator 670 in it lol
Yessa!
that sucks man about the battery.. those battery aint cheap either!! .. (any lithium) ..
Did you try hooking up another battery to the ion to "wake up the BMS" like you show in the video you posted last week?
Yup, nothing. That was the first thing I tried.
Hey Ryan,
I’m looking for an electric cart with utility bed on back to use around small farm. What brand do you recommend. Would you recommend new or used?
I would recommend either club car or ezgo (cushman). Typically you can find them cheap non running on market place.
Lol need to flip it yeah give your problem to someone else 😆
Hey Ryan, not related to this vid. But do you know how to install one of the dash kits onto the precedent after the tempo conversion? The under body cowl is different than the precedent where the brow installs, not allowing my my previous dash kit to be reinstalled. I have one of those carbon fiber basic dash kits with the 3 doors on it. Just wondering if you ran across this or heard of this problem? Thx!
I don’t have one or know of one. I haven’t installed a dash on mine yet either so I can’t provide you with any help. Sorry.
@Fentertainment no worries, appreciate the reply. Keep on keepin on Ryan 🍻
Hi Ryan....Thanks again for the video.... do you have a link for that Club Car Precedent 'Dash Panel" that holds the speaker and all...? Thanks Much....Mike. Sorry to hear about that battery...🤥
I'm curious as well
I just had it painted to match the cart but this is it. amzn.to/3wU5u8C

How about using your conventional car battery charger to see if you can give the UNO battery a small charge?
It seems like if the battery is too low on voltage that the lithium charger wont power up.
You say your not upset. I would be upset just because of the amount of money that it takes to replace it.
I hope that there ends up being a business that can rebuild lithium batteries by replacing the bad cells and making them work with the remaining cells, and also able to repair or replace the BMS.
Lithium batteries cant be so unique. They had to buy the individual parts from somebody in order to put it together. That has to be cheaper than buying a whole new battery and putting the UNO battery out for recycle pickup.
How did you like that enjoybot lithium battery you installed i. Another video. Thing of converting my 2011 club cart
I wouldn’t use them. For just a tad more you can get a whole lot.
Whats a good recommendation for lithium?
Dude, the VATRER is awesome. I just got myself a VATRER 51.2V105AH battery for my 2015 EZ GO golf cart. Trust Ryan, his advice was spot on.@@coastalcarolinafishingnc5199
Hey bud, what are those jl audio looking speakers in their? I can't quite make out the brand on em.
Edit, I didn't catch what ya said, "ionic"?
