Product Description
This is a replacement Electronic Control Module (ECM) for E-Z-GO Golf Cart 'Total Charger' models I, II and III. The 'Total Chargers' were made from 1986 to 1997. The early Total Chargers have white cases with a green decal on the front of the charger. They have a timer knob that turns the charger 'ON' & 'OFF' and it indicates the number of hours the car actually took a charge. The charger will shut itself off when the charge is complete regardless of the number of hours left on the timer. Later, with the 'Total Charger III', E-Z-GO changed the decal & case colors, and eliminated the ON/OFF timer knob (the timer is incorporated into the circuit board itself). These later chargers automatically cut themselves 'ON' when plugged into the golf cart and 'OFF' when the charge is complete. (The charger circuit board monitors the voltage rise of the batteries and when the voltage levels off, it shuts down.)
From 1988 through 1997 E-Z-GO offered a unique 'Total Charger II' that features push button start, LED read out of the battery voltage, time of charge and other cool functions. These special TC-II circuit boards are no longer available. Order this circuit board shown here but you also must call for a special wiring schematic to adapt this board to the 'Total Charger II'. This board will not support the lights, LED readout or push button start but it will salvage the charger.

Important Note: This circuit board will only fit Total Charge Chargers made by E-Z-GO. This will not fit PowerWise Chargers from 1995 to 2007. To find out which one you have, simply look at what your charger says on the front. If you find you need a circuit board for the PowerWise Charger, please see our E-Z-GO Powerwise Golf Cart Charger Control Input Board at www.golframa.com
1: These 'Total' chargers MUST be disconnected from the golf cart during any lengthy storage period...4 weeks or longer! The charger circuit board monitors the battery charge even when the timer is in the 'OFF' position. It will automatically come back on to charge if the battery voltage drops too low, but ONLY IF there is time left on the charger timer dial. Once the charger timer moves to the 'OFF' position it cannot come back on again unless you turn the timer to 'ON'. The charger uses the battery juice to monitor them. Over time the batteries discharge to such a degree that they will no longer power the golf car and, worse, the charger, when manually activated, will not come on to charge because the battery voltage has dropped below the critical 'cut-on voltage' designed into the system. The result is you come back to a golf car that doesn't run and can't be charged with your charger.
2: What to do if your batteries are so dead that the charger will not cut on? Assuming that the batteries have not frozen due to low specific gravity or that one battery is not totally bad, follow these recommendations.
1. Find an old style (pre-electronic circuit board) charger and use it to start the charge up. 15 minutes on one of these chargers usually brings the battery pack up enough to start using your regular charger again.
