I have installed Scotty B's reducer per his enclosed instructions and it has been working perfectly for running a 12" light bar and a couple of LED lights that are just for decoration. But once the time changed and we started to use the golf cart at night to get to and from my wife's work to check on her patients we noticed that the cart's headlights were getting very dim by the time we would start home. The yellow caution light would also come on by the time we would get back home. The LED light seemed unaffected when we switched it on by the warning light coming on and the cart's light becoming dim. So this got me thinking if the oem reducer was still connected and was there a way to hook my oem harness to Scotty B's reducer to utilize the entire battery pack to run the cart's lights. I found the oem reducer (photo 1) and noted that it was connected to the B- lug on the controller and the other side was split and connected to what appeared to be a fuse block (photo 2) where the other wires going to it run back to the oem wiring harness. Also, I found that a fuse block on the front frame of the battery pack (photo 3) has a red wire that is coming out of it that is connected to the #5 positive battery terminal. I disconnected this wire and I had no power to the headlights and tail lights. That being said; can I just run the red wire from the cart fuse block to the positive side of Scotty B's reducer and run a wire from the cart fuse block where the oem reducer two wires were attached? Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
