Does the cart run at all?

yes just not second speed

Try another solinoid, we have had bad solinoids out of the box.
swap it with # 4 and see if it works if yes then it's the Micro for # 3,
if it does not work at position 4 then its the Solinoid!

i have change the solenoids around and #3 still does not work all micros are new

Change the micros around , it activates the low voltage to close the solinoid !

changed micros still same problem

Strange this make no sense .
Jack the back of the cart up on blocks . scotch front end.
Check the voltage on the small lugs of each solinoid as you increase the speed.

Post results here ?
Did it do this before you changed out Micros and solinoids ?
Double check all wiring again.

Use a digital meter if you have one ?

Just give a check of the seristance coil on #3. Check to see if it has a break in it? Or a bad connection?
