scotty, 1st thing i would do is swap out the solenoid to at least eliminate it...........i had one do the same exact thing and i tested and tested and was sure it wasn,t the solenoid.......it was............................

Thats what I thought. I was testing the solenoid and found both small terminal with positive charge when the neg wire was removed? So I swapped out the solenoid with an identical new one. The solenoid clicks and the reverse buzzer worked all three micros at the F&R checked out (2 are new).
But the cart would not move.
2 days later ( I work on it when I get home from work) I search and check all connections = nope. So I am wondering about the pot under the floor
All of a sudden it starts working. I drive it all over for an hour F&R can't make it fail?

i have the flu bug really bad and my head is really fuzzy......let me think on this ...................

Sorry to hear that.....I'll edit here.

I do not know the system on this cart well and the pot seems like it could have an intermittent micro-switch? I don't know - the thing looks hard to get off and has about 5 wires coming out of it.


Anyone familiar with the insides of it?


Anyone know what rating bus fuse goes in the yellow thingy from the charge recepticle?

i beleive its a 35 amp......i think the pot has a micro i have to look at a diagram but i think theres one in there.......they are a pain in the arse but they don,t go bad often......................................

I don't know where else to look? They look like a big PIA Thanks, I'll find a fuse.
