Cart Subtotal:
The E-Z-GO Voltage Regulator is one of the essential parts of the golf cart. You have to have a fully charged battery to get the caddie started. The battery powers the starter generator, which electrically turns the crankshaft to produce a spark at the plug. When the engine starts, the starter becomes a generator and starts recharging the battery, but it needs help. If left unchecked, the generator would charge the battery at 18-20 volts. For a little 1-volt battery, that is way too much. It could melt posts or even blow up cells. If you have never been sitting on an EZGO seat when a battery exploded, count yourself lucky because it will put you through the windshield.
The golf cart voltage regulator pulls down that recharge voltage to a safe range of 13.5-15.5 volts allowing your battery to stay charged the entire time you use it. Now, if it remains parked for a long time, this will not help; take a look at the trickle chargers here at Buggies Unlimited to fix that issue.
Great answers from the community! All I want to add is that it will not work for 2 cycles but only for 4.
No, I made the same mistake. If you look close there is one with three wires right close to this one, that is the right one. I called the service department and they were great. He took my order and switched me to parts return. I am 100% satisfied with everyone and I will use BUGGIESUNLIMITED for my next order WILLIAM PHILLIPS
This regulator will work the others you find will not. My experience.
make sure its wired correct plus jack up cart so rear tires spin free apply gas an see if the volts go up also make sure the belt is tight on generator
