96 max 2 charging then amp meter stops working batt goes dead in 20 min..HELP
I have been having charging issues with my 96' Maxx II, I will go out for a ride 20 minutes or so and all of a sudden the amp meter stops working and if my headlights are on my battery is dead within a half hour or sooner. I do have a 6 bulb LED lightbar wired into my headlight wiring. Has anyone else had this problem and any help would be appreciated.
Would also be interested in replies to this - I am thinking of wiring in some extra LEDs.
(Where did you put the light bar jamesg? I have got 2 x 18W square for the headlights, and 2 x 18W strip to go on the roll cage.)
Not very clued up, but sounds like you need to do some electrical troubleshooting with a multimeter to find out what component is broken.
When I had a John Deere Gator, there was step-by-step troubleshooting guides in the manual, easy for anyone to do, then just replace the component that it shows as not working. Not sure if Recreatives have this.

Have a look on one of my old posts, I had same problem with my red one,mine was alose connection one the engine, once replugged in it was fine, does come lose again after ridding hard.
P.s you will get a reply these guys are great, helped me plenty of times.

This age of max I would look at the inline fuse near the starter solonid. They get corroded or melt and the charging system fails. I remove the glass fuse holder and splice in a marine holder with blade type fuse.
