Club Car 1022735-01, Rectifier, 35A - PowerDrive 2 Charger, Mac Charger

Club car charger was tripping the inline fuse (reset button). After online research, I figured this quick fix was worth a shot before taking the charger to the golf cart shop. Simply remove the charger cover (12 screws) and pull the connections from the old rectifier. The rectifier is secured with a screw and nut. Make sure to keep the terminals and wires aligned to the their proper position. I snapped a quick cell phone pic for comparison. It is recommended to apply a thin layer of thermal paste to the back of the rectifier. The paste can be purchased separately and you only need a small amount. After swapping the rectifier out, the charger is now operating properly. This was an easy DIY fix for less than $20 and 15 mins of time.

Based on a you tube video suggesting that this part is the typical cause of the breaker tripping I ordered one. Heck for $9 vs $300-$500 for a replacement charger it is worth the risk.My old club cart charger that was constantly tripping the breaker within minutes of use. When I replaced the Rectifier with this, the charger ran through the night when sometime after several hours I found the breaker tripped in the AM. I presume this is running cooler and better regulation. When I added in the new relay and breaker with this, the charger works fine with no breaker tripping.

While the OEM rectifier in the Club car Powerdrive 2 charger has a full metal body like the one pictured in the seller's description (as of Jan 8, 2019), the rectifiers I received have a black plastic body with a metal back and are manufactured by ON Semiconductor. They are otherwise electrically identical to the OEM metal-body rectifiers and and work fine. This isn't a complaint, but just an an FYI if this is something that matters to you. As for the seller, United Metro Golf Cart Parts & Accessories in Vegas, I couldn't have asked for quicker service; the part was in my hands clear across the country - and installed - in less than 24 hours after I placed the order.. Not too shabby.

as described

I have five yr old battery charger, no-name brand, it won't charge. asked our golf cart person who is well known as an expert, after reading the brand, he declared non-fixable. after googling I learned most of the problem with the charger is the rectifier. decided to try this one and it worked. it generates a lesser heat, charge faster than the one I bought a brand new one as a backup thru Amazon. I have no idea how long this honeymoon will last and now I have two chargers. the shape of the prongs are a little different from the original one but I made sure the orientation to be exact, now I don't know what to do with two chargers. it seems not right to return one just because I fixed the broken one on my own.

Golf cart wasn't charging. Replaced this along with relay and golf cart charges again. Including relay less than $25. Cheaper than service call and easy to do.

I was able to replace the part on my own without having to buy an expensive replacement charger. It was an exact replacement for a rectifier that wore out on 2005 club car charger. Glad I could find it since I live in a remote location.

After installing the part, my charger started to charge my battery for one minute, then the charging failed.
