Reverse fine won't go Forward

[Marvelous638]

Just switched the S1 and S2 at the motor and not it goes forward when in the reverse position and doesn’t go in reverse in the forward position. Bad cable?? And now I’m just confused. Lol.

Scotty, you are the guru and my mentor, but if the cart is moving in any direction on a series cart, the controller is good. The only thing it could be is the forward and reverse switch.
Does the solenoid click when the cart doesn't move? The activation micro switch may not be making contact if it isn't.

Yes it’s clicking. With a brand new switch, I’m utterly confused.

Make sure it's wired correctly. S1 and S2 cables on 3&9. Double check contacts in the switch itself. I've heard of new switches being bad out of the box.
I guess it could be a bad cable, but current flow is required in all four cables on order for the motor to turn. It's doing that in one direction, so that should mean all cables are good. The only other variable is rotating contacts.
