Default PDS operates in forward not reverse

I have a friend with a PDS that works fine in Forward but doesnt in reverse. I havent had a chance to test the F/R switch but the cart seems to creep in reverse for a second and then dies. If the switch was bad I would think that the circuit was open and it wouldnt work at all. Any ideas of where the problem might lie? Thanks

If you have the switch out you can just swap the top and bottom wires leaving the center wire alone. IF the problem changes direction the switch is bad. If the switch changes direction but still forward only the control is bad.

The controller just switches polarity to motor though right? So if it works in f should work in R I would think

No this is basically 2 controllers in one box. and one side quits before the other. It is a pretty typical failure
