    Hello sir, thanks for the video... On my 2006 Club Car DS it was set up like the precedent you should in video... after pondering for a while I decided to gamble, clipped the wires from obc, removed all wires except the blue and white as you advised, butt spliced them together, connected the grey connector back together and fast project took me 30 minutes. Went with summit II charger and has blue tooth which is cool. Thanks again for your videos

    Hi Wayne. Yes, it was my understanding that my MOD Z charger would work with either a OBC or with one that has been bypassed. Since I just tried the charger before cutting wires to bypass and found that while the amber low charge light sometimes blinks and sometimes stops, the charge across the battery pack does charge up to 55volts with about 8.9 across each battery. So, something is working, but I may still do the bypass if running the cart a lot causes problems. Thanks again for sharing your time and knowledge of how these systems work. Oh, I do know that my old charger did start at 15 amps and dropped to 10a and on down to 2 amps before shutting off. I have not tried to run my new charger all the way to shut off.

I considered the Summit II but didn't need all the details the app provides so went with the cheaper charger that sounded like it would work both ways. Let me know what you discover. Thanks again.

    Howdy Wayne! Great video and thanks. A quick question, do you have to bypass and eliminate the OBC when using a smart charger? I am wondering if I can just run a #10 wire from the outbound Neg on the charge receptacle and connect it to the Neg on the #6 battery and be done. This would leave all of the OBC wiring in tact in case a future buyer wanted to replace the bad OBC. Thanks, Lkh

    • @waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900
      @waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900  Před 2 lety +1

      most smart chargers need the obc bypassed. Some chargers claim they dont, but i havent seen them that actually perform well.
      Depending on what year and model cart you have. you probably have to do more than just run the 10 wire to the negative

    Hello Mr Martin thank you for the video! I’m in the process of bypassing my club car DS. I did everything you advised in the video but now my charger will not kick on. When you say cut the yellow wire and extend it to the main negative. Are you saying extend it from the solenoid side or the OBC side?

    • @waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900
      @waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900  Před 2 lety +1

      The skinny yellow wire needs to run from the solenoid to either the main pack battery negative, or to the B- on the controller.
      If you do not have a new bypassed charger, it will not come on.
      You must have a new bypassed charger once you do a bypass.

      There is nothing that is accessible in
      it. The entire inside is encapsulated in epoxy.
      Most important, if you are going to do a bypass, get the new charger first, because if you cut wires first, you won't be able to charge again till you get a different charger.

      yes on black wire. The gray you can just cut off, you wont be using it.
      The only time you need to mess with a yellow wire, is if you have a skinny yellow wire going to your solonoid.
      If you do have that skinny yellow wire then you need to reach you need to reroute that so it goes from the main battery pack negative to the solenoid don't worry about it if you don't have that skinny wire.
      And lastly if you have a blue wire and a white wire in your OBC Gray connector you need to cut and spice those 2 wires together on the cart side of the connector

What sort of wiring change would I need to make to remove the module. The original charge port is MIA and any signs of wires that went to it are gone. I just want any excess removed so as to keep possible confusion to a minimum. I am upgrading to a high amp FNR solenoid and I am gonna have the harnesses ripped open so I may as well trim the fat.

    • @waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900

      The only way to reset the obc, is to unhook all power and let cart sit that way for 10 minutes. Then hook back up.
      If you are positive you have a good working obc, and cart wont charge, try these :
      Check carts charge receptacle ,
      check # 10 red wire on main positive for corrosion or swelling, check fuse in yellow holder , try tugging a little on the gray wire at back of receptacle to see if it pulls out.

    So what I found is on the club car president once you splice the two black wires and do the blue and white wires. The old charger will not work that small grey wire must be hook to Voltage because that controls the 48v relay in the charger. I thought by doing the bypass I would be able to still charge with the old charger until my new ocb came in. But I don’t know what side to hook that small grey wire up to coming out of the charger receptacle that’s in the golf car. It’s the grey wire that has the spade connector on it that plugs in back of the OCB

    Wayne....this was a GREAT video. So, first off......THANKS! Here is my situation. I have a 1999 Club Car 48V DS. I recently replaced the 6 batteries with a singe LiPo4Fe suitcase battery that I had built. As for the charger, I have a smart charger that charges the battery directly and I do not even use the old charging receptacle in the cart. Currently, the negative cable passes from the negative terminal on the battery....through the OBC....and attaches to the controller.
    However, I am looking to upgrade my controller, solenoid, F&R Switch and use all 2 gauge wires. I know that I can use a metal bolt to pass through the OBC since the 2g cables are too thick....but my question is....do I still need the OBC? Is it something that I have to have to keep the cart running? Or can I remove it?
    Thanks in Advance.

      @@waynemartin.waynesgolfcart4900 Sorry....I had a link in the post that I removed.
      Thank for such a fast response! So, when I look at my OBC, I have 6 wires that come out of it (and the hole for the negative battery passthrough).
      Here are the 6 wires...
      Wires 1 & 2:
      1.) Thick black wire in your video that goes to the Charging Plug.
      2.) Grey wire that is in your video that shuts off the Charger.
      Wire 3:
      3.) There is another thick black wire that attaches to the B- on the Controller just like the Cable from the battery that passes thru the OBC.
      Then, out of the OBC, there are 3 more wires that attach to a 3 prong plug:
      4.) Red
      5.) Yellow
      6.) Brown
      If I remove the OBC completely, what do I do with the Red, Yellow and Brown wires? Just unplug it, rip out the OBC and be done? Or do I need to do something with those 3 wires that are on the the other end of the plug that is connected to the OBC?
      Thanks again in advance. I just need to be clear with what I need to do so I do not mess it up. :) And I would love to get rid of the OBC. One less thing to break....

      John, if you are asking how to bypass, :
      as shown in video, cut the gray wire off, don't need it.
      Reroute the #10 black from charge receptacle to main pack negative.
      Reroute that yellow wire over to pack negative or to controller B-.
      cap off red wire.Dont need to do anything else except get a different charger.

The problem I'm running into is the yellow wire coming from the solenoid is going to the plug that went to the OBC, its a 3 wire plug. Yellow, Red, Black. Do I need to do anything with those other wires? The old charger is also still connected to the solenoid still so I'm trying to figure how to get rid of that and if wire the new battery in. Haven't found much content on the internet showing these older club cars being modified with the newer style lithium batteries. Any helps and tips appreciated, love all the other videos!

      If no skinny yellow on solenoid, then forget about that wire. You touch no wires going to the mcor.
      If you spliced the blue to the white, at the obc, on the controller side of that gray connector, then the only other thing to do is route the black wire from back of charge receptacle to the main battery pack negative.
      All that should do it, nothing else. If after doing that, your cart don't run, it's either the batteries or the mcor.

I took the 10 ground and placed it on my - battery terminal. I took the yellow wire from the contoller connection and wired it to the negative terminal on my controller along with the 10awg ground wire. I get the reverse buzzer when i turn on the key, but the cart will not move at all. I get the click from the solenoid but no movement.

      As far as the bypass, it sounds like you didn't do it right.

So, before I started cutting wires as you explained, I decided to just try the charger on my Club Car DS 1997 and whlle the voltage across the battery pack (six 8v trojans) was about 49v, it went up to 51v after a few minutes and now the amber light doesn't blink on and off and the cart runs great. Could this new charger have "reset" the OBC? I'm now not inclined to cut the wires and rewire. thoughts?

      Hi Wayne. After a few days with no blinking amber light, it started again on and off about every 5 seconds. But yesterday it stopped again and has been fine for two days with no blinking at all. So, it seems I can get by just charging up with my Mod Z and not cut out the OBC. What should the voltage be on a fully charged 48v system of six Trojan 8v batteries. I get up to 55v usually before I stop charging so could leave it going longer. I'm really curious as to what the intermittent OBC failure might be....just curious.

      On a typical club car set up, the volts go up as the amps go down. So near the end of the charge, some times the volts are 60.

      Another advantage, is you need a new charger, so end result will be you should have a newer and beer charger.
      THERE is only 1 model of the obc that is still available for less than 250.00, that is for a very old model, and that is the only 1 that will be cheaper to replace the obc than bypass it, that is assuming you are doing the work yourself.

      Rerouting the yellow wire is for older DS carts.
      Since yours is newer, besides rerouting the # 10 Black , and cutting the gray wire, you should only have to deal with the blue and white wires.

    Wayne, My Crown batteries were 4 years old so I thought my problem was with them. Replaced on the precendent Trojans. It is a 48 volt cart. I charged the batteries up to fool charge. Hit the reverse switch and push the pedal. The voltage display drops to 0%, no light at all. Cart does not move. Any ideas what might be the problem. I put a new speed sensor and a chinese mcor about a month ago before I replaced the batteries.

    My DS does not have a small yellow wire on the selonoid. It does has the large yellow wire (negative) that goes up to the motor controller.
    The selenoid has lots of other wires attatched to it.
    Most from the forward/reverse switch. Looks like they were added at some point.
    Plus there are 3 wires from the obc, as well as the main black and small grey. A red fused wire going to + selonid. Then a green and yellow sliced into connector that goes to motor controller
    So I’m confused. The wire i connect from negative battery pack should go to which terminal on the selonoid. ?????

      sounds like you did it right. Text me pictures of your wiring so I can see the wiring you did as well as everything under the seat so I can see all the batteries and wires

    Hi Wayne. Just to clarify. When bypassing the obc on a precedent, the blue and white wire get tied together after removing removing wires from plug.

    The yellow wire in my cart has become disconnected. Where does it go?

      There is more than 1 wire in a cart.
      What year and type of cart? Does the cart still run with this wire disconnected?
      Where abouts on the cart, Is this wire hanging?

      I think the wire you are describing, doesn't go anywhere, that is the negative wire with a bullet end . Don't worry about that wire.
      If your charger isn't charging, it could be lots if things:
      .Bad obc, bad or weak batteries, no power at the ac outlet, bad charge receptacle, corrosion on the main red charge wire.
      You just haven't given me enough info.

    Dpi charger died so I bought a links from Battery source, worked great for a couple months then Quit working on my 2000 DS. Still worked on friends DS. Sold Links charger and bought eagle performance charger from battery source. golf cart still runs fine just won’t charge. They said just run negative charger receptacle wire to final negative battery. Did not charge, then followed your instructions with yellow wire from solenoid to negative battery and no charge still and cart stopped working. Replaced yellow wire back to controller. Cart runs again but still no charge. Any suggestions? Thx!

      First thing to check is the # 10 red wire from charge receptacle to main pack positive. Make sure the ring terminal or end of wire is not corroded or swelled up.
      Then run black from cart receptacle to main pack negative. If you have a skinny yellow wire on the solenoid, reroute that to main negative. Not the fat yellow wire.

      No charge. Cart still runs. Could there be anything wrong with the new charger, plug has bottom prong slightly shorter than +/- prongs. Is that normal? The guy from battery source says to rewrite everything back to normal and just add jumper from charger receptacle negative to main pack negative. Also I managed to damage the fuse on the charger receptacle so I just strait wired it hoping the new eagle performance charger would manage. Maybe I’ll go try a friend’s factory charger and set timer for 20-30 minutes at a time
