Default Electric ez go reverse issue

Hey guys, new to the forum here. I have a 1996 ez go txt electric cart. The controller is new, and I have brand new batteries. I have recently gone through and checked all wires and connectors and replaced anything that was bad. Here's the issue, in forward the golfcart runs great. When you flip it to reverse, the beeper comes on, you can hear the solenoid click, but nothing happens. If you give the cart a push it will go in reverse and runs fine but it just can't seem to go on its own. Any suggestions of where I should look to next?

The problem may be in the F&R switch contacts. If it is, you can swap the F&R cables at 9 oclock and 3 oclock and reverse the problem direction.

Are you saying swap the plugs on the micro switches? They have plugs that only allow them to be plugged in the right way

no - I'm saying swap 2 cables on the F&R

Can we have a picture of your F&R so we can know we are talking about the same thing

Did you say this was a txt? Lol for some reason I have no idea what I'm looking at in that pic. Looks like a cover or something but I've never seen this in a txt before

Are there any other cables at all that come from that f/r switch?? Like cables that are as thick as battery cables, because that's what Scotty b wanted you to switch around. Hard to tell from your pic but it doesn't seem like it

Ok I see now your f/r is directed by a micro switch on each side I see it now. Try replacing the micro switch for reverse maybe ?? Scratch that, they look built into the unit sorry

Ah ok last comment I swear lol. If it comes down to it, they do sell the micro switch assembly for REVERSE direction it's pretty cheap too. But we will hear from Scotty b first
