For both standard lead-acid batteries and a lithium battery system, our ultra-thin golf cart solar panels are compatible and offer a variety of benefits to your cart and batteries. Available at our golf cart parts and accessories online store, Prime Cart Parts, our solar panels come in three different options – 130W, 260W, and 390W; when buying more, you save more. They work by installing on top of the golf cart roof, nearly invisible when looking at the cart from any angle but straight down, and are compatible with many different brands of carts, including EZGO, Club Car, Yamaha, and more. Our kits come with all necessary wiring and hardware for installation.

One of the most important tasks is making sure that an electric golf cart’s batteries are in their best condition and will last as long as possible. Many newer carts have a lithium battery system, which require virtually no maintenance, but for carts with a lead-acid battery system, regular maintenance is necessary. This includes checking the water levels and refilling with distilled water when they’re low – when refilling, the water levels are meant to be about an inch below the cap hole, or just touching the edges of where the hole begins. Cleaning the terminals is also essential to preventing damage to the posts or cables. Using a solution of baking soda and water, use a wire brush to clean any corrosion and the liquid solution to dissolve the acid deposits.
It’s recommended to use a tire pressure gauge to check the air pressure level of your tires and make sure none are over or underinflated. Depending on your golf cart, the specific ideal tire pressure may vary, but most cart tires range between 15 and 25 psi. Also make sure to inspect for any signs of excessive wear or damage, such as shallow grooves, exposed treads, or reduced firmness.
When going over your electric vehicle’s components, we provide a variety of basic maintenance tasks necessary to proper function. This includes fluid checks and replacements, such as changing hydraulic brake fluid, checking the transmission fluid in the drive unit, and refilling windshield wiper fluid if needed. We can also change wiper blades, as well as cabin filters, and even very simple tasks like changing key fob batteries.
When driving, the alignment of your wheels slowly shifts and becomes uneven over time. Other minor accidents, such as fender benders and hitting potholes or curbs, along with off-roading or aggressive driving, can worsen misaligned wheels. A sign that your wheels are misaligned is, when letting go of the steering wheel, the vehicle pulls instantly to the left or right. Over time, this worsens, and with all the effort required to keep the car straight, your tires will become worn faster than normal, and more unevenly, and more energy is used. Our team of technicians is ready to get your electric vehicle’s wheels straightened out for a smoother and more energy efficient ride.
Worn suspension can cause a variety of issues, including causing wheels to become misaligned much faster than normal, a rougher driving experience – which could lead to increased wear and more frequent maintenance -, and decreased durability and lifespan. If your suspension is not in good condition, it can create various different issues down the line for your vehicle. Our maintenance team will inspect and diagnose any issues, and give you the best price quote for any repairs needed.
