Charger installation is pretty generic.

Normal charger installations in a GEM car include:

1. The plus and minus charging wires

2. The interlock wires to prevent operation of the cart during charging

3 (Optional) wiring for a temperature sensor to be mounted on the battery.

Does your present unit have more wires?

I think the Delta-Q is junk and recommend the Ride for Fun or Quick Charge units. Hook up is very easy.
