Default DTS Cart only goes forward

Regardless of the position of the F-N-R switch, cart moves forward. Tested both micro-switches and appear good. How do I test the controller? Or is there another place to look?

Sorry, it is a DCS... not DTS and I believe it is a mid-90's.

The manufacture code in the glove box gives the date code. Last 2 digits are the year M3097 is 1997. I'm not sure but that might be a bad controller. Directional switching is done within the controller on that cart. My neighbors has one that has been running that way for year.....

The plate has G298, so it would be a 1998 model.

Yep, it is a '98 DCS with a bad controller.

That was my conclusion also, but wanted someone with more experience to confirm. Now the question is where to get a new controller at the best price? Appreciate your help...
