Start with the number on the identification plate
When I check an E-Z-GO cart, I start with the identification plate and then compare the result with the cart’s visible features. The number provides a better starting point than appearance alone.
Most plates have one or both of these values:
- A short manufacturer or date code. This usually contains a letter and three or four digits, such as A1288 or G2015. In the common formats covered here, the final two digits point to the possible model year.
- A six- or seven-digit serial number. This identifies the individual cart. Published serial ranges can help with early carts, but a later serial number does not reveal an exact year by itself.
If you have both values, enter them with a space or hyphen between them. For example, enter A1288 123456, not A1288123456. Keeping the values separate prevents a serial digit from being mistaken for part of the date code.
What this lookup reports
The result shows a possible model year, model, and voltage. The year comes from the identification format or a documented serial range. The model and voltage are matched to the E-Z-GO products associated with that period. Use it to take your parts search straight to the right era.

Where to find the serial and manufacturer code
For many E-Z-GO carts, the first place to check is in or below the passenger-side dashboard storage area. On other models and production years, the label may be beneath the seat, on a rear frame member, under the charger receptacle on an electric cart, or under the choke plate on a gas cart. RXV labels can also appear near the bottom of the steering column.
Look for a label that lists a serial number, manufacturer code, date code, or several identification fields together. If the label is dirty or faded, photograph it before cleaning so you have a record of every readable character.
Once the lookup has narrowed the cart, compare the result with the badge, body shape, dashboard, gas or electric system, and battery pack. That final check matters before choosing batteries, a charger, body panels, or drivetrain parts. For operating estimates, you can also use the range calculator or charging time calculator.
How E-Z-GO date-code letters changed by era
The final two digits are usually the most useful part of an E-Z-GO date code because they identify the possible model year. The leading letter needs more care: E-Z-GO used different production calendars, and documented sequences omit the letter I. That makes M a valid production marker.
Production-code references by era
The decoder accepts the documented letter set A through H and J through M. It does not turn the letter into a calendar month unless the matching production cycle is known.
| Reference | Documented sequence | What it means for your result |
|---|---|---|
| 1977 to 2004 dealer guide | A is the first production month for that model year, usually July or August, but the starting month could vary. | Use the final year digits first. Check the production cycle before treating the letter as a calendar month. |
| 2015 CPSC recall record | G was January and L was May. The letter I was not used. The first two numbers gave the day and the final two gave the year. | A code such as G2015 points to 2015, while this documented sequence reads G as January. |
| Factory TXT PDS plates | Real five-character date codes include M2607 and M2309. | M is valid. The final two digits point to model years 2007 and 2009. |
The practical takeaway: use the decoded year to narrow the cart first. Treat the leading letter as an era-specific production marker, and confirm the exact model from the MODEL field or the cart itself.
What the year tells you about model and voltage
The manufacturer code does not spell out a model name or electrical voltage. Once the tool finds the possible year, it matches that period with the E-Z-GO models and power systems produced around that time. This is useful for narrowing the cart to the right parts family. I still recommend comparing the result with the cart itself.
| Era | Common models | Identification notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1960s to 1980s | Marathon | Early electric and gas carts with rounded body lines. |
| 1990s to 2000s | Medalist, TXT | TXT became the long-running platform associated with this period. |
| 2008 onward | RXV, TXT | RXV joined the range, while TXT continued through later electric and gas versions. |

Examples from published E-Z-GO references
A1288 123456
A dealer serial-number guide uses A1288 123456 as an example of the 1977 to 2004 format. The final two digits of the short code point to 1988. In that production-cycle reference, A represents the first production month rather than January. This is a good example of why the year can be useful even when the month needs an era-specific reading.
G2015
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission documented 2015 E-Z-GO date codes beginning with G2015. In that sequence, G represented January, the first two numbers represented the day, and the final two represented the year. The tool therefore reports 2015 as the possible model year while retaining the separate month-reference explanation.
M2309
A factory TXT PDS plate can show M2309. The M is a valid production marker in a sequence that omits I, and the final two digits point to 2009. If the same plate also says MODEL TXTPDS, that model field confirms TXT PDS more precisely than the date code alone.
Matching parts to your cart
The lookup gets you to the right era fast. The cart itself fills in the rest, and these are the details that pick the exact part:
- The model badge and body shape.
- Gas or electric.
- On an electric cart, the battery-pack voltage and charger plug.
- The full serial and manufacturer code, worth keeping with your parts notes.
If the tool rejects a combined number, add a space or hyphen between the short code and long serial. If you have only a later six- or seven-digit serial, you get the era, and the date code on the same plate gives the exact year. Stuck on either one? Send it to us and we will identify your cart.
