A quick look in the archives might provide the solution to your problem. This was found in the future section (just kidding, it was a typo). This thread was started back in Oct 2017 and has been bumped back to the top a few times. Many of these great solutions can be searched out using the Search tool found in the upper right of your window. > [@2902 gem car not getting the CLUNK](https://community.electricforum.com/t/2902-gem-car-not-getting-the-clunk/12979): > > Dear Team, My students at the high school I teach at , have redesigned and repurposed a 2002 gem e85 two seater. We are at the final stages and ran into a snag. We have brand new batteries, DeKa gels. When the master switch is turned on our BDI lights up and then goes blank. If you turn on the key it still stays blank, and everything electrical works. We just don’t get the CLUNK, that associates with any kind of movement. Any help would be greatly appreciated, trying to help the kids meet… * * * After you get your car back rolling, I also suggest searching out how to check you charger profile since you just switched your pack to flooded.

Here is one- (there are many) > [@Batteries not fully charging](https://community.electricforum.com/t/batteries-not-fully-charging/17814): > > Car has been working great. The other day after five miles the charge gauge started flashing then went to turtle mode and a red bar appeared. I was able to get back home. Now when I plug in the charger it charges for a few minutes and goes to green fully charged but the gauge is only up to two green bars. The batteries are 12v AGM mfg. 5-18. thanks in advance for any help. Stan Riva. 2005 E4 As always- report back your findings and solution. I hope this helps.
