I have headlights on my tempo. Each unit (left and right) is split into two sections. One lower section is lit any time the key is "on". The upper section only lights when the headlight switch is "on" or pulled. This is normal. My question has to do with the voltage going to each section of the headlight unit. The lower section measures about 8 volts and the upper measures about ****volts. Are these readings normal?

ELECTRIC VEHICLE - BATTERIES Battery Replacement BATTERY REPLACEMENT See General Warnings on page 1-2. WARNING • Wear steel-toe shoes when replacing batteries. • To prevent electrolyte leakage from the battery vents, batteries must be kept in an upright position. Tipping a battery beyond a 45° angle in any direction can allow a small amount of electrolyte to leak out the vent hole.
See General Warnings on page 1-2. WATER QUALITY Water purity is the most important factor in the performance and life span of the vehicle batteries. Club Car is, therefore, placing increased importance on battery water quality. Outlined below are four battery watering procedures, grouped into two categories: Preferred and Alternate methods.
Replace filter immediately if the red light comes ON indicating service is required. Replacement filters are available from Club Car Service Parts. • Inspect the condition of all tubing, connections, and couplers. Make sure that all parts are in good working condition, secure, leak free, and properly connected.
Battery Care ELECTRIC VEHICLE - BATTERIES Single point watering systems will require seasonal maintenance if vehicles are taken out of service or put into storage for a period of 6 weeks or longer. To prepare the SPWS, ensure the feed tube and coupler are on top of battery. Then, use the following steps to bring vehicle back into service: After the batteries have been fully charged/equalized, connect the system to its water supply for 3 to 5 seconds, then disconnect regardless of whether or not the batteries are completely full.
• Do not overfill the batteries. NOTE: A battery watering gun or bottle is available from your authorized Club Car dealer. The battery hold-downs should be tight enough so that the batteries do not move while the vehicle is in motion, but not so tight as to crack or buckle the battery case.
Battery Care ELECTRIC VEHICLE - BATTERIES Hot weather also has an effect on a battery’s self-discharge rate. The higher the temperature, the quicker a set of batteries will discharge. In hotter climates, batteries should be checked more often. When storing batteries, keep in a cool place.
A deionizer for vehicles with SPWS, Club Car Part Number 105166801 is available from Service Parts (DC powered water quality indicator light). Replacement cartridge: 104005901. Bottled distilled water, with hand pump, Club Car Part Number 104006101, is recommended for private consumer applications.

Questions and answers
I have headlights on my tempo. Each unit (left and right) is split into two sections. One lower section is lit any time the key is "on". The upper section only lights when the headlight switch is "on" or pulled. This is normal. My question has to do with the voltage going to each section of the headlight unit. The lower section measures about 8 volts and the upper measures about ****volts. Are these readings normal?
