PDS/Key Switch/Won't Go

What solenoid do I need to order from you? Alltrax 400 controller/36volt. If I still have my old stock solenoid should I throw it on there just to see if it will make cart run? I understand they will run with an Alltrax 400 but just won't hold up? Is that correct?

The Alltrax 400 requires a 200a solenoid. Use SW180 with magnetic breakouts for best results... Also have you cut off and discarded the lower 2/3 of the environmental cover for proper cooling?

I removed the cover.

Is that the solenoid you sell on your website? I didn't see it listed?

UPDATE: Brakes were frozen up from sitting last year with the parking brake pressed. Ordered the solenoid and was planning on switching everything out. Tried to roll cart around to front of house for ease of working on but cart wouldn't budge. Then it hit me, brakes are stuck. I even brought my stock controller and solenoid in case I had to switch it all back out but fortunately it was only the brakes. I still have the problem of it running without the key switch even being connected but I will address that later after the storm passes through.
