Electric golf cart question

When the batteries are just about dead on my golf cart, a warning light is suposed to come on. It doesn't. There is power to the light. How does it work ? I expect when the voltage goes down to a certain level the light should come on,.

Welcome to the forums.

The warning light would need to be more than just a light.
It would need circuitry so that it knew when a certain voltage threshold was reached.

We'd need year, make and model to comment further on how it works.

Yes need more model info.

You said there is power to the light so the most obvious things is that the bulb or LED is bad but what is the voltage at the light.
