Default Goes in reverse not forwad

I might not be on right forum? I have a HDK cart where the reverse works fine. I have swopped the S1 and S2 on the Curtis 1266 controllerand the car goes forward with reverse switch at walking speed. Switched to forward it wants to go but cuts out immediately. The batteries are new.

Does the controller have the Curtis logo on it, or is it a Chinese knockoff?

I'd check the direction switch with an ohm meter. And also measure voltages of forward and reverse controller inputs

Fetched cart from auto electrician. He did nit find the fault. He hoped to get assistance from his contact 250 miles away but did not work out. We are in Swakopmund Namibia. There is no one here who has the tester who coud check the controller.
Will play golf using the reverse set to go forward swapping s1 and s2 ar walking speed. Forward still moves the car one foot and then cuts out. Will carry on checking connections.

The chinese "knockoffs" can have the same logo as the official chinese curtis branded controllers as some are grey market from the official contracted manufacturer. Depends on how old the controller is and what model as some models are still made in the states..

Plus there are counterfeit stickered units out there as well and I see no reason to believe they would be honest on stating the country of origin as they are already falsely claiming to be curtis units. The serial number is the best way to tell.

Ive seen the curtis controller not go reliably in reverse and have corrected that by adjusting setting mostly related to the throttle behavior but never seen a one that just stopped going forward and still worked in reverse. From the troubleshooting you did and the fact that it goes forward with the cables swapped I'd say the fault certainly lies within your controller.

Have worked out it gives power to mode on controller. It is not the cause of my problem.
