As previously stated we assume you meant 60 Amp fuse. If it is the fuse in the house power panel and you fried it using the charger, you've got big issues, probably with the charger. You really need to know what you are dealing with. Is is a 36V cart, (six 6 Volt batteries) or a 48 Volt cart (eight 8 Volt batteries). Then make sure you have the right charger 36 vs 48.
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.
