thanks that does not tell me anything outside of the normal care. can anyone tell me why a 24 volt system would have 32 volt charger? car chargers for 12 volt rarely go part 15 volts so i’m a bit confused as to why this one had a 32vdc charger on a 24 vdc system. so does anyone have an answer for that? i did find out by taking it apart that they had the charger connected in the wrong polarity so i fixed that and had to install new batteries because it ran them down so far the charger could not recover them even at that 32 vdc output. see photo of the charger on it now this is not the oem charger so i want to get him the proper charger but like i said this one is what came with it and i’m leaning on it not being the correct output for the system. can anyone clarify based on there 24 volt lift charging systems? thanks
