Yamaha Golf Cart Vin Decoder

What year and model is my club car cart?

2018 Yamaha Golf Cart Vin Number

The serial number/barcode decal is found just below the glove box on most models.

Yamaha VIN decoder. This is the Yamaha VIN decoder. Every Yamaha car has a unique identifier code called a VIN. This number contains vital information about the car, such as its manufacturer, year of production, the plant it was produced in, type of engine, model and more. For instance, if someone wants to buy a car, it is possible to check the VIN number one the online database to ensure that the car was not stolen, damaged or illegally modified. The serial number for the Yamaha G3 Sun Classic model golf cart is usually located just under the rear bumper on the passenger’s side. It is stamped onto a tin tag which is riveted to the frame. It should begin with either a “J46” prefix for electric models and a “J42” prefix for gas models. Yamaha units are synonyms to style, power, high speed and exceptional performance. Engineers pay attention to every detail making their bikes true automotive masterpieces. Buying a new Yamaha can appear to be a problem for those who are not ready to spend extra $40,000.

Since 1981 Club Car® Golf Carts have positioned their serial numbers just under the glove box on the passengers side of the vehicle. The serial number of each vehicle is printed on a bar code decal. The two letters at the beginning of the serial number 'A' indicate the vehicle model. The following four digits 'B' indicate the model year and production week during which the vehicle was built. The six digits 'C' following the hyphen represent the unique sequential number assigned to each vehicle built within a given model year. (See chart below to find your model.)

This Example Serial Number is for a (PH)Precedent I2 Excel (0901)Year-2009 Made the 1st Week (123456)Unique Number For This Particular Cart.

On Club Car® Golf Carts prior to 1981, you can find the serial number by raising the seat and locating the aluminium, I-beam frame section closest to the batteries on the driver's side of the car. If the serial number plate has been removed, you can confirm it is a 1975-1980 model if it has two brake pedals and one accelerator pedal.
