No, if they are wired in series you have 36 volts assuming each battery is a 12 volt battery. They will have to be wired in parallel to output 12 volts. In that case you can charge them with a 12 volt charger but it will take 3 times as long as charging just one 12 volt battery.

How do you change a golf cart battery wired in series?
I think they mean "How do you charge a golf cart battery wired in series?" If you only have a 12 volt charger disconnect the batteries and charge individually. Wired in series you double the voltage, two 12 v batteries equal 24 v, three equals 36, four batteries equal 48v. Unless you have a charger that will charge the total voltage you have to charge each battery.
Can you use a 12 volt battery charger to charge two 12 volt batteries that are wired in series that has 24 volts?
No, but you can charge each one individually without separating them from the series loop.
How do you charge two 12 volt batteries with a 24 volt charger?
The two batteries can be wired in series BUT unless they are identical batteries in an identical state of charge they should be checked regularly to see if one of them is fully charged (the voltage has risen to 14.5 volts).
Can you charge two 12 volt batteries wired in series without disconnecting them with a 12 volt charger?
No, since in series they are 24 volts so you need to charge each one independently with the 12 volt charger. This may be done disconnected or leave them connected and put the charger on the + - of the same battery.
Can I use a 12 volt 1amp battery chargermaintainer on my 48v golf cart?
No. You can only charge one 12 volt battery at a time or two 6 volt batteries wired in series at a time if you want to use that 12 volt charger.
Will an electromagnet be stronger with 2 batteries wired in series or parallel?
Normally putting the batteries in series would have more effect.
4 12volt batteries to make 24 volts?
2 batteries are wired in series then these 2 are wired in parallel with the other 2 which should also be wired in series. series is positive to negative and or negative to positive. parallel is pos. to pos. and neg. to neg.
How much voltage is provided by 3 AA batteries if the batteries are wired in paraell series?
Wired in parallel you will have 1.5 volts just like you have 1 battery. Wired in series you will have 4.5 volts. In parellel the amperage will triple but the volts stay the same.
If batteries are wired in a series-parallel configuration?
You get more voltage and current capacity.
Can a 5.7 volt charger be used to charge 4 rechargeable AA batteries?
My understanding is 5.7volts is what your supposed to be charging 4 AA rechargeables ,wired in series, with... Due to loss of current through connectors and wires.. But i cant remember exactly what the voltage needed after the loss is? anyway.. hope that helps you a little
What happens IF the wires from a battery charger are put the wrong way round onto battery terminals and left to charge?
charger i had was wired wrong. soon as it was plugged in the charger stopped working. if wires are wrong it just will not charge and can be dangerous!
Can you run your 24 volt trolling motor on 12 volts?
step up trasnsformer <<>> As suggested above transformers do not work on DC installations. You will need to use two 12 VDC batteries in series with each other to obtain the 24 VDC needed to operate the motor. Connect a jumper between the two batteries with a wire the same size as the wire coming from the motor. The jumper will go from the negative of one battery to the positive of the second battery. The two remaining posts will connect to the motor and have a potential of 24 VDC.
