Welcome !!!

Go to the Home link, look under EZGO and in the electric section there is a diagnostics link posted by Scottyb, use that it is helpful in figuring out what is wrong with your cart.

Check the other side of the solenoid? Is power getting thru?

I checked voltage on controller side of solenoid it was 37.2 volts the same as battery side of solenoid.With the key switch turned on I had the same voltage on all four post of the solenoid, with switch turned off I have 11.9 volts on both small terminals.I need more advice please.

sounds like you need a new solenoid and a new Diode for the solenoid.

Check to make sure all the cables are tightened. All of them. I know, I know, sounds stupid and simple, but I had the same problem, so I took a ratchet and tightened all of the cables very tightly, and it ran again.

Hope this helps!
