Re: Cart runs in reverse
Yes, my neighbor ran his cart in F only with the F1 and F2 wires reversed as I suggested for a year before upgrading.
This control has 2 sides. You have lost 1 side. No Problem running on the other half |

Re: Cart runs in reverse
I just went out and pulled the cover off of the controller because the cart will not run at all.(I was going to switch the wires like Scotty suggested). I found a small white wire had melted and appeared to be shorted to one side of the solenoid. I moved the wire and taped the covering. The cart will not do anything. Now the backup buzzer sounds with the switch in F. I'm at a lost. I thought I would be able to get by for a couple weeks and replace the controller. Any suggestions would be welcomed.

Re: Cart runs in reverse
Where is this small white wire that got shorted out coming from / going to?

Re: Cart runs in reverse
Sorry it comes from under the cart. There is a white and black wire. they plug into the top of the controller.

Re: Cart runs in reverse
'under the cart' is not a very specific location. Could they be the throttle sensor wires?

Re: Cart runs in reverse
best I can trace it the wire runs from the controller to the motor.

Re: Cart runs in reverse
White 10 gauge with Black 10 gauge on the top left of the controller facing the rear going to the motor would be field wires.. I think you found your issue that was causing the problem. Unfortunately if it melted things it is probably too late and is time for a new controller..
Too slow.. What he said.. |

Re: Cart runs in reverse
Yep - been there & done this myself. Thankfully the newest controls have reverse polarity protection. So this type of loss is now preventable.
