Yamaha Parts and Accessories

In this guide, we'll cover battery basics and common questions to make sure you're spending more time riding in your cart instead of wondering why it won't start.

Most accessories that require electricity to operate use an input voltage of 12V DC. Unless you have a direct 12V battery connection (gas cart or electric cart with 12V batteries), then you need a way to reduce the carts' overall voltage to 12V (in order to prevent damage to these electrical components). To accomplish this, you can use a voltage converter or a voltage reducer.

This is a tricky question—and getting a straight answer can be frustrating. Simply put, a golf cart isn’t a low-speed vehicle (LSV). Well, sometimes. The difference between them gets a little muddy.
