Charging Receptacle

[photonsforever]

Just a quick question: I have a 1997 EZ-GO TXT. I had to buy a new Reed Assembly. My Charging receptacle is in bad shape where the Reed Assembly plugs in to it. If that area of the Charging receptacle is bad, will it make a difference for the reed assembly? My golf cart will not charge and I'm wondering if that's why.

Thanks

Welcome to the forum.

If the receptacle and contacts have been hot that may be your problem. The cart will charge with a bad reed switch so start with cleaning the connections on the DC plug and the receptacle on the cart. If you look at the DC plug you'll see a small metal tab, make sure you clean the outside of the terminal on the cart so that tab makes a good connection.
