No it doesn't have a high/low switch...sounds almost like a pot box issue.

A pot box is the throttle...it is sorts like or variable resistor. E-z-go's throttle runs from 0 ohm (0% throttle) to 5k ohm (100% throttle) You will have to get a volt/ohm meter to check it.

Follow the accelerator linkage under the cart. When you press the gas, you are moving the potentiometer.
