99 club car wont charge- blown fuse?

[skinsfan]

When my OBC went out I temporarily did the bypass thing on the charger. After running my cart hard this weekend, I plugged in the DC before I pugged in the AC. I now know that's a no-no.

Now the charger won't come on. I checked for loose wires ( I had been trail riding) and everything seems tight. Any ideas anyone? Thanks in advance.

if you can check your charger on another cart to see if it works if it dosn,t than you know its in the charger if it works on another cart than its OBC time..................................

Thanks The charger was working fine after the bypass until I connected the DC before the AC. I was wondering if there was a fuse or relay I might have blown. I really don't have access to another cart to check the charger.

your fuse you should be able to see from front of charger.......its the v shaped lead peice..........there is a relay there is a circuit breaker the little black switch on front of charger and ther are diodes inside........get a manual and there are step by steps on dignosing any problem you might have................you,ll need a multi meter ( voltage meter )....................................

If its a 48v cart check the fuse that is located under the seat behind the DC plug, it is a 3/8amp glass fuse on a grey wire. T

This is the communication link between the charger and the OBC

yes there is a 3/8 fuse but it very very rarely blows, who knows?............................

Thanks guys for all your help. I am embarrased to say that I must have hit the receptacle at some time or another and knocked a wire loose. Once I repaired the receptacle, the charger came on. Whew!

thanks for the update, as you see sometimes its the simplist of things that will bring the cart to a halt.....................................................
