If you popped the 60 Amp fuse in the charger (which is a major league transformer), it was either a power spike/lightning strike or a major short internally in the cart. As stated earlier, both www.buggiesunlimited.com and www.golfcartcatalog.com have great forums and technical advice for cart owners. I have 3 carts and these two sites have helped me tremendously.

A golf cart requires a lot of maintenance to keep it running for many trouble free years.

"48 Volt cart (eight 8 Volt batteries)"?

I think a 48 volt cart has six 8 volt batteries. My Club Car golf cart does anyway.

My golf cart is a 2003 and the only thing I do to it is add distilled water to the proper level, keep it charged, and keep the terminals clean.
It is just about maintenance free.
