Welcome to bgw Henry Burkholder

Henry it sounds to me like you have a solenoid which is welder closed or on all the time..... you can verify this with a voltmeter.... The F&R usually arcs when it has loose connections so did you replace it with a new or used unit? Is your cart a controller or resistor cart?
