1995 EZGO no forward or reverse solenoid clicks

Replaced the forward reverse switch last week worked fine. It just quit the only thing that happens is the solenoid clicks when you press pedal. Checked connections all good. Need T/S help

Just for grins try tightening the center pivot shaft nut 1/2 turn on the F&R.

Tried but no luck! Thanks

Found some bad news the board that holds the contacts melted on the bottom contact. The A wire, in looking at the old F/R switch post had also been hot. What in the circuit would cause that wire to pull excessive amperage? Thanks

Too loose, or corrosion. I'd consider replacing the cable, especially since the same position failed. This can't be fixed. Don't drive without replacing FNR.

To specifically answer your question, all current flow is identical in all connections, cables, conducters, motor, FNR, etc.
