Default starter will not spin with belt on

EZ-Go Workhorse 1200. was running fine, although I did notice on start-up last few times starter seemed to drag. now, starter will not turn gas engine over. I removed starter and cleaned commutator. I think brushes were ok. Put back together and bench tested and starter spins. put back on cart and will not turn the belt over. removed belt and starter spins. gas engine turns over by turning starter pulley belt manually so it is not locked up. going to do some voltage checks, but in the mean time I was looking for feedback on what to check. thanks.

Check for a bad connection. Are the lights still bright when you try to start it? Sounds like a battery problem to me.
