I have a 48 volt Sky 200-6 cart seats 6-7 people, with Trojan 105 batteries. The cart is 9 months old and is used on a family hunting ranch with dirt roads and some hilly terrain. The cart when new would make 3 to 4 trips around the ranch, each trip about 2.25 miles and the battery indicator showed about half charge.
Starting 3-4 months ago the cart seemed to be losing power faster, making one trip and then showing a half charge and can barely make it back up the hill to leave the ranch. I have checked the battery's specific gravity and voltage, checked all connections and the charger seems to be working OK.
Anyone have any ideas on what could be the problem, thought maybe the motor itself, or anything else I could check? The dealer has offered to go over the cart but it is a 100 trip to take it there. Any ideas or help would be appreciated.
