Golf Cart Serial Number Lookup & Owner Tools

Golf cart owner resources

Start with the identification label, then check seat and roof measurements separately. Select a resource below for the information you need.

Find the year of a golf cart using the identification plate and manufacturer references. Club Car date codes can identify a year and production week; Yamaha prefixes need a matching serial range; E-Z-GO identification varies by model.

Golf cart brand Club Car E-Z-GO Yamaha

Serial number or model prefix

Check serial information

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.

EZGO TXT and RXV serial number lookup: what to check

Record the full serial number and any separate manufacturer or date code exactly as printed. Label locations and coding systems differ across older and newer E-Z-GO carts. Do not infer TXT versus RXV from a guessed year, or apply one date-code rule to every generation.

For models purchased before 2023, E-Z-GO describes barcode labels on the steering column or below the driver-side seat, depending on the model. Older carts may require the model-specific manual. This tool provides a reference route rather than an unverified year calculation.

Use E-Z-GO customer care and serial-label guidance to confirm your model and year. Include a clear photo of the entire label when contacting the manufacturer.

Yamaha golf cart serial number lookup: model codes and year

Yamaha uses model codes and serial ranges. A prefix identifies a product reference; the full serial number is needed to match a production range. Do not treat digits after the prefix as a universal calendar-year code.

Compare your full code with Yamaha’s official PTV parts catalog. Other prefixes need the appropriate manufacturer catalog or dealer lookup.

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.
