Hello. Thanks for helping. I’ve had a Gem for a bit and really only use it to tool around the neighborhood with the kids. I put in a R4F Motor upgrade and a new pedal. That’s about it.
It needed batteries as the AGM’s in it were done. I thought it might be the charger but pulled a battery out and tried to individually charge it and no luck. Was gonna put in lithium (and still may) but am out of time. Thus I wasted the money for 6 new interstate batteries.
Tomorrow is Halloween and I use the car to tow the kids around the neighborhood, thus I justified the fun vs. cost.
Issue here is I noticed that when I went to change out the batteries, it seemed the assembly was missing a jumper. In the pics you can see the negative wire coming from the front hit the four batts under the rear seat and then the jumpers come across the run. But the last battery on the passenger side never jumped to the rear two batteries. Then you can see in the rear that it was simply those two batteries in series with the positive main wire running to the front of the machine. This can’t be correct, right?
Am I missing a jumper from the last positive terminal on the bank in the front to the negative terminal on the two in back?
