I would think and this is only my opinion that if you blew the controller it wouldn't move in either direction.

On a IQ cart the cart was in forward when the motor terminals were shorted, thus wiping out forward, reverse will still work. Controller is the issue, have your friend pay for it.

On the series cart you might be correct, on an IQ cart that does the switching inside the controller it's most likely the controller.

I noticed you didn't say it was definitely the controller either.

Okay I'll say it - I bet $100 dollars it is the controller failed.
Happens in Sepex drive carts because the control does the direction control.
Cart guy is right
but, I suggest against rebuilt controls. They fail again soon & often. They are not really rebuilt, they are patched and sent back into service.

Don't forget that Ray is in England and that current flow there is from positive to negative.
Just the reverse of what it is here.

At the end when the wheel is kind of pulsing forward, have you tried pressing the pedal and pushing/helping the wheel turn to see if it will pick and run,

Never know it may have cracked a brush and the English Current can't flow,...
