If you\u2019re looking to buy parts for your Club Car, Yamaha, or E-Z-GO golf cart, you\u2019ll need to know the make, model, and, of course, the year. The make and model are usually pretty easy to find out, but the year is a little harder. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a bonus, if you can\u2019t find the model name printed on the side of the golf cart, your journey of finding the year of manufacture will generally tell you the model name, too. If you’re looking to buy a used golf cart<\/a>, it helps to know the year as well.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To find out the year and model of your E-Z-GO, Yamaha, or Club Car golf cart, you need to know where to look for the manufacturer code, what parts of the manufacturer code you need, and how to decode those characters into meaningful information.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This article will walk you through the process of finding out your golf cart\u2019s model year. The only sure fire way to do it is to check the manufacturer code, but it changes a little bit depending on whether you have a Yamaha, E-Z-GO, or Club Car golf cart. After finding the manufacturer code, just compare it to a chart, and you\u2019re golden! <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For E-Z-GO and Club Car golf carts, the decoding or comparing process is very simple and intuitive. The year code just directly correlates with the year of manufacture, and you can usually get the model name from the code or code placement as well. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Yamaha golf carts, it isn\u2019t quite as easy, so the process for Yamaha golf carts is at the bottom. I supplied a chart for your convenience, just use the ctrl+f search function and you should find your Yamaha golf cart\u2019s year of manufacture and model name with ease.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finding the model year on your E-Z-GO golf cart<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The interesting thing about E-Z-GO is that just finding the manufacturer code will tell you the model of the golf cart, and the year of manufacture is really easy to decode from the manufacture code. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finding the manufacturer code<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There are three possible places to find the code, but one of them is rather unlikely unless your E-Z-GO golf cart is from the 70s. If your golf cart was made anytime in the last few decades, you\u2019ll find it in one of only two places:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
