The reason there is a 12v reducer is to reduce the 36v down to 12v. Never hook lights or accessories to just ONE 12v battery. Connect the reducer to the WHOLE battery pack...NOT JUST ONE BATTERY. YOU WILL throw your power out of wack to the whole cart in a short amount of time. And one more thing...deep cycle marine batteries will work....BUT, if you run those batteries down past 50%, you take a chance of ruining those batteries. ALWAYS USE GOLF CART BATTERIES in a golf cart. There is a reason they are called "golf cart" batteries. The inside plates are bigger and can take discharging down to 20 - 10%..batteries are way to expensive to use incorrectly
The two large wires coming from the control the dirty black one, what terminal under that cover did it come from and the other Black with the tape on it where did that come from.
watched but still stuck? Under the cover is the forward/reverse switch, where did the positive wire going to the battery on that switch does it go? The negative I think comes from the controller. This is my final step to see if it runs. Bought everything new now. Nice videos.
I think what I am asking is confusing? Basically all the batteries are hooked up for the 36v sequence and now I need to know where I attach the positive lead from the battery and the negative lead from the battery to? Also the solenoid I believe needs to be directly hooked to the battery positive?? Not sure what side of the post I use.
Both my negative and positive are hooked into the the controller. You’re actually not the 1st person to ask about where the wires come from and go. Soon as I get time I’ll do a better job of showing those particular wires.
I got a 94 yamaha electric g9 but nothing was connected. Some wires are cut. How can I find out where each wire is supposed to connect to solenoid and controller?
Your batteries are dead or have dead cells. If your cart moved before you did the swap, and if you followed these directions, there's no reason why your cart won't move.
I’m not sure of the layout on lithium batteries I’ve never seen them. As long as you have a positive and a negative everything should fit in series like it is here, but I’ve never seen a 12 volt lithium battery to say for sure.
You’ll have to use deep cycle batteries. These that I have used are marine deep cycle batteries. Automotive will work too but you need to make sure they are deep cycle.
All I wanted to do is check the polarity of the batteries as I install them and I go on these internet sites to get a wire diagram and all there is are rip off sites where they want you to download their scam software or talk to one of their "highly qualified' technicians for which they want to to pay them via some scam identity theft site....it's ridiculous.
Try this one, but if it don’t help there’s nothing more I can show you. 12 volt battery install on 36 volt golf cart. th-cam.com/video/Oths7H3MyDw/w-d-xo.html
I have a golf cart. 1980 36 volts and I have 6 batteries. What I don't know is where to connect the reverse cable and the forward cable. it also has another cylinder cable
@@darwindeleon3619 ah so it’s not the same as I have. So all I did was connect everything that was positive on the 6 volts to positive on the 12 volts and repeated that for the negative. Then just ran everything else in series (pos to neg to pos). I hope that helps.
Simple instructions very helpful thank you
Glad I could help
I appreciate the instructions for battery installation. I have a 2013 EZGO RXV with light not working. This will help me. Thanks
Glad I could help.
Thanks again for all the help.

It does what I need it to do though
Cheers dude , exactly what i needed to kno .

See if this will help.

Negative to the B- on the controller and the positive B+? also is there a battery lead to the solenoid?
Where the positive and negative terminals lead on a golf cart with a 12 volt swap.

Hopefully that will help
I got a 94 yamaha electric g9 but nothing was connected. Some wires are cut. How can I find out where each wire is supposed to connect to solenoid and controller?
You can check to find a wiring diagram based on the model number but best case may be casing everything down 1 at a time.
Did you put both wires from the charger on the positive terminal?
Sort of yes, but there is a 3rd wire that connected to the negative.
How long does they last, and does this make the golf cart move fast
I got about 2 years out of a set and the speed is the same.
So my question I have does your factory charger charge the 12 V batteries good I was told that they made fry them
I’ve had no issues with the charger and it’s been this setup for 4 years now.
@@ChrisThedudenurse thanks
good clear and simple
Thank you
Thanks for this
You are welcome
Basic wires are black when ordering them, easy solution is red heat shrink for the positive wire
I probably should have changed the colors but I bought it this way.
I wired mine exactly the same way and now my cart wont move either way. What could I have done wrong or missed?
I’m not sure. Did it move before doing the battery swap?
Your batteries are dead or have dead cells. If your cart moved before you did the swap, and if you followed these directions, there's no reason why your cart won't move.
Thank You Sir 👍
You are welcome
where do the red wire go too on the charging port
Without having it in front of me I don’t know
I do have a few more videos on this, hopefully one of them will help.
Hi can you tell me if this wiring would be the same for three 36v lithium batteries? Thank you!
I’m not sure of the layout on lithium batteries I’ve never seen them. As long as you have a positive and a negative everything should fit in series like it is here, but I’ve never seen a 12 volt lithium battery to say for sure.
We have two cords that dont know where they go..
Where do they start from?
Use 2 Guage wire between the batteries, you'll notice a big difference.
I’ll definitely have to check that out
Until someone drives it until the batteries die. And then they won't take a charge . So you can buy 3 more. Lol
Can you use car batteries or do you have to use a special type
You’ll have to use deep cycle batteries. These that I have used are marine deep cycle batteries. Automotive will work too but you need to make sure they are deep cycle.
@@ChrisThedudenurse thank you bud.
Were there two wires for the lights or just the one you showed?
Only the 1 that was shown, I imagine that the negative is piggybacked on something else.
All I wanted to do is check the polarity of the batteries as I install them and I go on these internet sites to get a wire diagram and all there is are rip off sites where they want you to download their scam software or talk to one of their "highly qualified' technicians for which they want to to pay them via some scam identity theft site....it's ridiculous.
Best thing to do is track it all down and label it yourself. I labeled mine with painters tape.
How to you track it all down Thnx
Brother, you point at wires and nobody has any idea where those wires are coming from
Try this one, but if it don’t help there’s nothing more I can show you.
12 volt battery install on 36 volt golf cart.

Easy for you. No for me 🤣
What are you having the most issues with?
I have a golf cart. 1980 36 volts and I have 6 batteries. What I don't know is where to connect the reverse cable and the forward cable. it also has another cylinder cable
@@darwindeleon3619 ah so it’s not the same as I have. So all I did was connect everything that was positive on the 6 volts to positive on the 12 volts and repeated that for the negative. Then just ran everything else in series (pos to neg to pos). I hope that helps.
My cart has 6 batteries. I have two black wires coming out the side box as well. How do you know which goes to pos/neg. They both are black on my care
