I took the batteries of to wash them and the platform. After putting everything back, the car ran perfect but the lights and horn did not work at all. I checked and found two wires, (red & white), that I had left disconnected from the negative post of the batterie. I connected them and the lights and horn still don't work. I Checked 4 fuses that are hanging between the batteries and motor, and they are good.

How can I troubleshoot this problem? How can I find wring diagram for lights and horn circuits?
The cart is a 2006 Columbia and I don't have the owners manual.

is it a 36 volt cart? you need to find 2 batteries wired togather that give you your 12 volts if they are 6 volt bateries......so get a voltage meter and find 2 of them and than connect the red wire to the pos terminal of one and the white wire to neg terminal of the othetr see if lights work................................

I did what you said and it turned out that both wire, (the red and the white), belonged on the positive side of the battery right next to the battery i had connected them to the negative side. The problem occurred because someone helped to take the batteries off and put them back. My helper disconnected those two wires. This particular cart has eight 6v batteries, totaling 48v. Any ways it only took two batteries to send 12v that is required for the lights and horn, just like you said. Than you very much, you really got me out of a jam. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
