Default Fire.... why?

Soo I got home from work, grabbed the dog and rode around the neighborhood for alittle while but when I get in the driveway it still wants to go about 2-3mph... Not sure why?? Solenoid stuck?

When I opened the seat up the fwd reverse thing caught on fire when I put it back into the fwd position. if I put it into neutral it will go out and not move... WTF!!!!

All the electrical is stock, no extra batteries or nuthin.

Actually I went back out there and hit the solenoid with a hammer and it clicked... so I put it back into fwd position and no fire and hit the pedal and it was clicking as it should...

So im just gonna need the new solenoid. Also I found this too because I noticed ALOT of heat coming from behind the batteries which came to this. If they are touching could that be bad?

Those coils should not be touching one another. Wait until they are cool and then straighten them out.
I also suggest you change your F&R, the contacts are obviously burnt, that will just lead to more trouble with it later.
The solenoid needs to be replaced and you should take a good look at the contacts in the the V-glide. The wiper arm in the the V-glide might have gotten stuck or melted onto one of the speed selector lugs. Check it out and make sure it's returning to zero
