You can get someone to buy you a Sam’s Club gift card, then you can go in and use it. I read about that truck the other day, but haven’t tried since we are members

Thanks again all. When to pull the batteries out and found a bad connector. $4.15 to repair it. The batteries took a full charge. All good now.

Well, Got a problem with the cart. It's not charging now. Checked the cables and checked the batteries. Got 36v across and 6v at each battery. I checked the plug and clean that. With a volt meter, the charger is putting out around 12-14V. Shows no amps on the meter that is on the charger. Before when the charger was showing around 20 amps and would drop to zero at full charge.

Ideas?

1. Is that an onboard charger ? I'm assuming not - so maybe you can borrow or buy an inexpensive charger
and hook it up for comparison.

2. Are the readings of 6v and 36v with or without the charger connected. This chart LINK shows what a fully charged 6v batter should read. If yours is actually at 6v it's about 50% discharged. (A digital volt meter is almost necessary to use a chart like this effectively).

Without the charger hooked up. Really thinking the charger went bye bye. Trying to find another charger to see if that is the problem. Battery gravity is ok on all batteries.
