Series or DCS cart? Sounds like you should identify the problem before you use it much more as further damage could result?

Do you know the year? Tell us the F/R location and if there is a toggle switch under the seat on the controller cover...

Wink Re: EZ go cart doesn't reverse

Thanks for the information. We will look into the possible burnt terminals in the forward and reverse switch.

I was having issues with my 03 pds cart not going in reverse. After all my searching for loose connections I decided to buy a 25 dollar fnr switch and that was the culprit. I wish I knew half as much about these carts as some of the guys on here....
