Default 03 pds only goes in reverse

I was having an issue with the cart not wanting to go either direction. I replaced the solenoid and now it only goes in reverse. Put the old solenoid back on and the same thing

Default Re: 03 pds only goes in reverse

This is the typical way the stock controller dies. The PDS controller has 2 halves which run the forward and reverse direction separate from one another... typically the forward half dies first simply because it is used so much more.

To reverse the problem (go forward but no reverse) Swap the F1 and F2 wires at the controller.
Hope this helps

Thanks for the help scotty b. I'm guessing the f1 and f2 wires are the ones on the outside. Looks like the middle one is power?

I need more help. I switched the wires and it goes forward but it jumps and won't go full speed. Is that the controller?

You switched the wires at the rocker switch correct? Scotty was talking about F1 and F2 at the controller. If you switched the wires at the rocker switch and the problem reverse, then you have a bad switch.

No, I switched the wires on the controller and now it will go forward but not at full speed and it jumps and sometimes just stops completely

This is why I thought you were at the forward and reverse switch. It sounded like that was what you were describing. Yep switching F1 and F2 and the problem changes, sounds like one side of the controller is shot and the other is about to go.

Any chance of repairing the controller or should I get a new one?
