Default Battery blew up on TXT, What could that have damaged

After having an LA battery blow up on me, I decide to go lithium. Got the new pack installed and no solenoid click when attempting to run. I have 39V at the controller/solenoid, what else could have been damaged by battery explosion? Going to try bypassing solenoid in the morning.

Reed switch bypass? Connect the red wire to battery pack positive.

When I switched from deep cell to Lithium, I had the same problem. The reed switch was bypassed at the charging port, but when I took the charging port out of the equation, I had to account for that.

So I should take the red reed switch wire and take it from where it connects to the fwd/rev mechanism, and run straight to the positive (red) lithium wire, correct?

I did some searches online and found evbatterycenter.com. After reading some posts on BGW, I called and talked to Nick. I told him how I used my cart and hesuggest a pack that gives me 20 mile range. So far I am very pleased

Can you give me the AH and voltage? I'm shopping for lithium packs now.
