I put LED down-light kit on my cart (the kind where you can change colors, pulse, flash, etc.)
Amazon productThe lights cut on and off while running. A side note, I have LED Headlights that are not affected.
I'm thinking the electronics are quite sensitive to over-voltage since they function normal when engine is off.
Got the cart out of winter storage and had to replace the battery. it was only 2 years old.
My multimeter is showing wildly fluctuating voltages while running, and I suspect over voltage might have killed it slowly.
Last season I replaced the solenoid and the voltage regulator.
Even added an electronic rectifier for the LED light kit.
Made no difference.
Its looks to me like the coil voltage is bleeding over into the charging circuit.
Other than that. Cart runs fine. Starts right up, keeps running, no stalling.
What do you think? What am i missing here?
