To bypass the Club Car iQ OBC properly you need to get a 10,000 ohm pull down resistor. Then you need to go to the 6 pin plug. You can cut the wires, but I have Deutsch pins so I just depinned all the wires from the plug. To do that you use a hook tool to pull out the green wedge lock and then pull back the tabs holding the pins
Now you need the blue and white wire, either cut from the OBC or new wire. Get a male .250 spade connector and crimp the blue wire together with one end of the...
Golf cart headlights for the longest time have not been much better than a pair of candles slapped up front, however with modern advancements in LED technology as well as the introduction of the Club Car Tempo which was designed with factory headlamp mounting provisions, a plethora of new lighting options have entered the market. I've tried several and noticed wildly varying performance, as well as heard rants and raves from others about some of the different light kits so I wanted to do...
Starting off with a 2021 Club Car Tempo, building it with a Navitas 600A / 4kW AC conversion and Eco Battery 105 AH lithium battery. To start I stripped down the golf cart and pressure washed everything clean. If you want a guide on how to take it apart go here: Club Car Tempo Teardown Guide
Now you don't have to strip the golf cart down to do this, you can leave the rear body and underbody on but since we're building it it's easier just to have access.
So to start you remove the T40...

Personally the Club Car Precedent is typically the golf cart I recommend people to buy. Other models may be better suited depending on your application, as every make and model has it's strengths and...

Does your engine have a "ticking" sound? It could mean its time for a valve adjustment.
Before starting anything make sure the key is off and the battery disconnected. Remove the two 10mm bolts that hold the valve cover on. Remove the valve cover. To find top dead center, remove the spark plug and insert a straw or a small dowel rod. DO NOT use a screw driver. You could possibly scratch the cylinder if you are new to this. Rotate the clutch until...

ENGINE OIL AND FILTER CHANGE
First, lets start with the basic oil & filter change. This should work with both a lifted cart and a non lifted cart. Since a lot of people are now lifting their car, it tends to tilt the engine cradle in such a way that it is hard to drain all the oil out. So the first thing to do is:
