Controls and Indicators
FUEL GAUGE/HOUR METER
Gasoline Vehicles Only
The gasoline vehicle is equipped with a fuel gauge/hour meter (5), located on the instrument panel
(Figure 7)
. The
fuel gauge allows the operator to monitor the fuel level in the vehicle. The hour meter should be used by the trained
technician to track vehicle usage and determine when periodic service procedures are required.
See Periodic
Service Schedules on page 44.
BATTERY WARNING LIGHT
Electric Vehicles Only
Electric vehicles feature a dash mounted warning light (4) (above steering column) that, when the vehicle is in
operation, indicates low battery voltage or, when the vehicle is being charged, indicates a charging problem
(Figure 8)
.
The battery warning light is controlled by the onboard computer.
When the vehicle is in operation, the warning light will illuminate and remain illuminated if:
• Batteries’ voltage drops below 48 when there is no load on the batteries (the vehicle is stopped and there are
no accessories on).
• Batteries have discharged to less than 25% of rated capacity.
If the warning light illuminates when the vehicle is operating, there will be enough power remaining to drive the vehicle
for approximately 30 minutes. However, the vehicle should be charged at the first opportunity. If the warning light
illuminates and the vehicle is unable to operate for 30 minutes, have your Club Car distributor/dealer check the
vehicle for a possible battery or electrical system problem.
When the batteries receive an incomplete charge because 1) the DC power cord is disconnected, 2) AC power to the
charger is interrupted, 3) automatic charger shut-off occurs after 16 hours of operation, 4) the charger malfunctions,
or 5) the wrong charger is used, the warning light will indicate as follows:
• The warning light will not come on if the charge is 90% or more complete. The onboard computer will retain in
memory the amount of charge needed to fully replenish the batteries and will complete the charge during the
next charge cycle.
• When the charger is unplugged, the warning light will illuminate and remain illuminated for 10 seconds if the charge
is less than 90% complete but the vehicle has enough power for approximately 30 minutes of operation. This will
alert the operator that the vehicle may be used, but that it must be charged to completion as soon as possible.
• The warning light will repeatedly illuminate for 10 seconds, with 4 second intervals if the charger times out at 16
hours and the batteries are not sufficiently charged.
See battery charger owner’s manual.
This indicates an
abnormal charge cycle. The charger and batteries should be checked by your Club Car distributor/dealer.
• The warning light will repeatedly illuminate for 10 seconds, with 4 second intervals during a charge cycle (DC plug is
still connected) if AC power to the charger is interrupted. The light will go out when AC power is restored.
LED Light:
In addition to the warning light, there is an infrared LED in the dash light assembly, which transmits an
infrared signal from the onboard computer (OBC). This signal is received by the optional Communication Display
Module, which provides information on the condition of the vehicle and batteries.
BATTERY CONDITION INDICATOR
Electric Carryall 6 Vehicles Only
The battery condition indicator features a 10-bar LED display that, when the vehicle is in operation, displays the level of
battery capacity, measuring battery voltage over a period of time.
When batteries are fully charged, all indicator lights will be on. When battery voltage drops below 75% of full discharge,
the last two indicator lights will flash alternately. Continued use of vehicle after indicator lights begin flashing without
recharging could result in decreased vehicle performance.
See following NOTE.
NOTE:
If battery condition indicator moves rapidly (approximately 45 minutes) from full charge display to empty, there
may be a problem with the wiring or with a battery cell. If indicator display does not reset back to full after
