Cool G1 will not fire in reverse

I have a G1, that will not fire in reverse. It runs fine in forward and will turn over in reverse but will not fire. I hear the solenoid click when I switch it to reverse. I have done some research and it sounds like it's the CDI unit, but I've also read that those rarely fail. I've checked connector/ground at the ignition. Looking for someone to steer me in the right direction.

On the same but another note, towards the end of last year, when I would drive it, the solenoid would click off and on (in forward). It hasn't done it this year but is that a solenoid going bad or a delay going bad?

Thanks - Zach

Default Re: G1 will not fire in reverse

Could be the pedal switch or a bad ground in the wiring making it click off. Look in the stickies for the wiring diagram, I can't remember but think only one CDI on them and two pickups on the crank trigger. There are threads here to troubleshoot them. First thing I would do is look for a wiring problem, that is very common on these carts they have bad connections/connectors/etc. A g1 guy should be on here soon enough. I worked on them a lot long ago, but they didn't have these age related issues.
