Default Westinghouse / Nordco speed issue

Hi All,

My vintage diamond plate Nordco cart has a speed issue. Sometimes it goes slow, sometimes "fast" or faster I should say.

I can hear 4 distinct "clicks" as I press the accelerator down, but the 3rd and 4th click don't always add more forward speed, sometimes they do...

I understand there are 4 solenoids, what is the best way to diagnose this??

Thanks,

Bruce in Los Angeles

Sounds like 3rd and 4th solenoids are bad or going bad. Theres not a real good way to test them when the problem is intermittent like that. The contacts are probly arced real bad and not making contact all the time.
