How to Wire an EZ-GO Battery
EZ-Go manufactures utility carts in a variety of styles and sizes that can be customized to the specifications of its owner. After sitting for long periods of time, up to 30 days, the six 6-volt batteries will have to be replaced, due to a loss of charge. Whenever you install new batteries in your EZ-Go cart, you have to make sure that you wire the six batteries correctly, or you could damage the batteries and render them useless.

Position the batteries in the EZ-Go's battery tray, which is located in the rear of the utility cart. Place the first three batteries with the positive (+) terminals toward the front of the cart and the negative (-) terminals toward the back of the cart. Position the other three batteries directly behind the first three, facing the opposite direction, so that the positive terminals are toward the back of the cart and the negative terminals are across from each other.
