Exclamation ran great for a year then nothing

I have a 1979 Yamaha G1 that I received. It ran great until a few weeks ago when I was driving in a ditch along a highway to take things up to another farm. I hit a few large bumps but it still was running fine. I got off it at home and was putting a few things away. I got back on it an hour later but nothing would happen. Anyone have any suggestions to try?

ditto. also test battery. check all cables ends from battery to starter/gen to solenoids. make sure all are clean and not corroded.

I changed both fuses.
I changed out the battery.
I checked the terminals that connect to the battery.

Thanks

if its not cranking and your getting battery voltage at your starter/gen then do the starter/gen test. This is listed on the Harley golf cart but its the same test for the Yamaha g1
