86 DC F&R switch Confusion

hudnut · 10-23-2019, 09:06 AM

Apologies if this has been covered but I'm unable to locate on search. I'm rewiring what I believe to be an 86 DS (the one with 5 solenoids to control speed). I'm not sure if the previous owner changed anything so I'm starting from scratch as the thing melted down. The wiring diagram is very vague when it comes to the fnr switch and the style of switch in the full diagram looks different from what I have. I found the below image but not certain that it applies to my cart. Anyone have any more info on the forward and reverse switch on these

The diagram You have on the bottom does not allow for reduced speed in reverse.

If this is the FNR switch You have then use this diagram:

thanks sergio. Im guessing 1/2 throttle (right bottom terminal) is just the positive from the battery in the middle of the pack. Also found this in the troubleshooting forum but the image does not show as full resolution. Anyone recognize it?

The right bottom terminal can be the positive for the middle battery for 18v reverse or the next battery positive for 24v reverse or the next positive for 30v depending how fast you want the reverse to be.

The diagram you showed is exactly the picture I posted.

I updated the previous picture with another one that has more annotations about the connections.
