I am back with my northern fleet now. 2012 RXVs.
This week we had two solenoids fail and one cart die on the course.
I don't give much thought to one cart dying on the course because it easily could not have been plugged in, since most minimum wage cart attendants don't bother to check chargers when they close or open. Nor do most know anything about how a golf cart operates or how to maintain them.
I had another cart that was suspicious, a flashing green charger light after a full night and then a flashing red light. I moved it and plugged it in to another charger. An hour later it had a heavy sulfer smell and excessive heat from the batteries. I could actually feel the heat just walking by the cart.
I visually checked a few battery cells and the fluid level was OK. I filled the batteries using the autofill system and one valve did not close, overflowing that cell.
No conclusion on it, yet, but I put it in timeout.
