1998 EZ GO TXT no reverse
My cart decided to not go in reverse last week. I purchased a "resistor board" based on one of the diodes looking badly burned. Just installed the new board but still have no reverse. By the way, the solenoid will click in both f&R. It will go in forward motion but nothing in reverse. Any ideas

Re: 1998 EZ GO TXT no reverse
Just a "SWAG" but if your board connection was toasted, then it may be a good bet that your high current wire (the heavy gauge wire that connected to it) is also toasted. When you disconnected said wire did you clean the terminal with a wire brush? Did you give the terminal a good "twist" to make sure the wire right under the rubber was not brittle or "crunchy"? Again, usually when the copper contact goes, the wire thats connected to it is weaker, and it will fry right along with it.
Or, perhaps when you replaced the board (assuming it had new copper contacts) the old contacts on the switch may have been on a "bad" or slightly melted switch board and not giving complete contact with each other. Those two contacts must be flush to give a solid passage of current between them. |

There is an 80% chance the F&R switch is not making contact in reverse. See continuity test below
