How to Refurbish a Golf Cart Battery

By Bobby Ingram
Refurbish your golf cart's battery and extend its life.
Having the battery on your electric golf cart die can be a frustrating experience. Before resigning yourself to replacing your dead battery altogether, and the costs which come with it, try refurbishing your battery through a water change and a series of charges.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Step 1
Place the water in the large mixing bowl, ideally in a warm state to allow easier mixing.
Step 2
Combine the salts with the water.
Step 3
Remove the cell caps on your battery and empty the old water.
Step 4
Refill the cells with the new mixture you have created.
Step 5
Use the battery charger on your battery.
Step 6
Leave the battery to sit for a week before re-installing, recharging two to three times during the week.
Step 7
Re-install the battery.
