Club Car Serial Number Lookup: DS, Precedent & Model Year

Read a Club Car serial number to check its date code and selected model prefixes. Use the official directory to confirm the model before ordering parts.

Club Car example: AA9812-123456. Yamaha example: J0D. E-Z-GO: use the full serial label for a manufacturer check.

Club Car DS and Precedent serial number lookup

Look for the barcode label near the passenger-side cup holder or above the pedals; locations vary. The leading one or two letters identify a model reference. The next two digits indicate the model year, followed by two digits for the production week. The remaining sequence identifies the individual vehicle.

Example: AA9812-123456 contains year code 98 and week code 12. Confirm the model against the directory rather than assuming that every electric cart uses the same voltage.

Choose seat protection after identifying your cart

Use the matching brand guide to check seat dimensions and installation. A model code is an identification reference, not a product-fit guarantee.

Questions about model-year checks

Can I look up a Club Car DS serial number?

Yes. Enter the printed prefix and date code above, then confirm the prefix in the official directory. A recognizable date code can identify the model year even when the tool does not have the model prefix in its small reference list.

What if the serial plate is missing?

Check the owner’s paperwork and ask a manufacturer dealer about model-specific label locations. Body shape can help narrow a family, but replacement bodywork and rear-seat kits make appearance alone unreliable.

Does the lookup verify a seat cover will fit?

No. Cart model identification and product dimensions are separate checks. Front and aftermarket rear benches may differ, even on the same cart.
