missing wire?

[Bubba11]

so I am trying to install a reversing contactor in a 93 DS solid state 36 volt cart. according to Scottyb's instructions I am to connect a solid green wire and solid white wire off of the ms3 on the old forward and reverse switch. the ms3 on that switch only had one wire which I believed was a black wire. there is no solid green wire in that location, now there is a solid white which I cant remember where it went on the old f/r. any clue would help thanks

I can't answer your question but this should be the wiring diagram for your cart, maybe it will help you figure it out.

ms3 is the switch closest to the rear of the cart. It is the only micro-switch (ms) with 3 tabs.
In the case where your cart has only 2 tabs on the ms3 as shown in the diagram above do not connect these 2 wires as that will induce reduced (reverse) speed.

The cart should run with or without these 2 wires connected.
I suspect the trouble not running is else where.
Can you post a couple of pictures of the installation?

thanks for the replies. Scottyb I have checked all the cables again as per the diagram everything is in place. the contactor clicks solenoid clicks I am getting voltage to the number 1 pin on the Curtis controller numbers 2&3 shows that its getting a response from the vglide. battery pack is showing 37.6 volts

If you set the meter to ohms Ω. Then pull wires 2 & 3 off of the controller ansd plug a test lead in each one. The pedal should read 0-5000 through full travel

did that and got the proper input, how do I check to see if the controller has failed on the output side

ok after rechecking the output on the controller, it turned out to be a bad solenoid. thanks again for the response
