IMO knowing the cart was going to set you should have disconnected battery. Why? Some carts have add on features that drawn milliamperes. And With weak battery could drawn it down enough to not crank the starter generator. As reported Yamaha carts seems to have overcharging problem so if you drive it the battery will charge up. But, that maybe part of problem if battery few years old? Bottom line unless you charge battery and test it or have it tested you have no clue the condition of battery. Unless you know the condition by testing if could die at anytime?
