How to check the starter
I have a 98 gas cart. Battery side of solenoid I have 12 volts. Solenoid clicks when pedal is depressed Starter side reads less than a volt at this time. When I unhook the starter wire from solenoid, starter side then reads 12 volts? Starter junk maybe? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Re: How to check the starter
Your battery should have more than 12V fully charged. Are you using a test light or a voltmeter? I would suspect a bad battery before a bad starter. How old is the battery?

Re: How to check the starter
Is the battery old? I'd try swapping in one from a car just to rule it out.
