Default PDS, 500 Alltrax, 400 amp solenoid, 8.1 hp motor - JUST PLAIN STOPPED!

Descriptive title... Was riding down a water easement trail, slid over/down a boulder, then the cart just stopped. No codes on controller. Replaced solenoid with factory one to test. Replaced ITS microswitch. Nada. Staring at it and having a few thought cans. Ideas? Questions to help troubleshoot?

Wait, is the microswitch a pedal up = open pedal down = closed circuit?

Solenoid activation circuit below. Start testing at the charge receptacle (early model) or main (+) battery (late model) 36v + should be at every line end point when the gas is press, key on + cart in gear.

Solenoid activates. Controller acknowledges full throttle, just not by making the cart go! Lol

PDS cart. Alltrax control LED solid green goes to orange when pedal to the floor .... Test voltage between A1 and B-. It should be near full pack voltage when the solenoid just clicks..... then reading should drop near 0v when the pedal goes to the floor.
