E-Z-GO Serial Number Lookup
E-Z-GO year identification usually depends on the shorter manufacturer code, not the long serial number alone. Enter the code from the data plate and select where you found the plate to narrow the model family.
How to Identify Your E-Z-GO
- 1
Find the data plate and copy both the manufacturer code and long serial number.
- 2
Enter the shorter manufacturer code in the decoder.
- 3
Select the plate location because it can separate Marathon, Medalist, TXT, and RXV families.
- 4
Confirm the result against the body style and drivetrain before ordering parts.
Look Up an E-Z-GO Manufacturer Code
Enter the E-Z-GO manufacturer code from the data plate. Select the plate location to narrow Marathon, Medalist, TXT, or RXV.
E-Z-GO Lookup Examples
| Number, code, or clue | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| A301 1338763 | A301 is the manufacturer code; 1338763 is the individual serial. |
| Inside passenger glove box | A common location clue for Medalist and early TXT carts. |
| Rear passenger frame | A common location clue for RXV carts. |
E-Z-GO Model Families by Year
Use the manufacturer code for the year and the plate location plus body style for the family. Model transitions can overlap within a calendar year.
| Model family | Production era | Identification clues |
|---|---|---|
| Marathon | 1976-1993 | Older angular body; the plate is commonly under the passenger glove box. |
| Medalist | 1994-1995 | Short transition generation before TXT, often with the plate inside the passenger glove box. |
| TXT | 1996 onward | Long-running platform with several body revisions and gas or electric drivetrains. |
| RXV | 2008 onward | Distinct rounded body; the plate may be on the rear passenger-side frame. |
| Express / Valor / Liberty | Current lineups | Personal transportation families identified by badges, configuration, and current documentation. |
Where to Find the E-Z-GO Serial Plate
Primary location
Inside the passenger-side glove box.
Backup location
TXT models may also show the plate on a steel cross member behind the seat.
You need the manufacturer code on the plate, not just the long serial number. The plate location is often the fastest way to narrow Marathon, Medalist, TXT, or RXV. Example format: A301 1338763.
Current E-Z-GO Models
Verify the Result
- Record both the manufacturer code and the long serial number.
- Record exactly where the data plate is mounted.
- Compare Marathon, Medalist, TXT, and RXV front-body details.
- Verify gas or electric power before buying model-specific components.

Frequently Asked Questions
What number tells the year of an E-Z-GO golf cart?
The shorter manufacturer code is normally the year key. The longer serial number identifies the individual cart but usually does not decode the model year by itself.
Where is the E-Z-GO serial number located?
Common locations include under or inside the passenger glove box, below the charger or access panel, and on the rear passenger-side frame.
How can I tell an E-Z-GO TXT from an RXV?
Use the plate location, model badge, and body shape together. RXV plates are often on the rear passenger frame, while TXT locations vary by generation.
Can I decode an E-Z-GO from the long serial number alone?
Usually not reliably. Look for the manufacturer code printed on the same plate and use the plate location as an additional model-family clue.
