Default Speed sensor

I noticed the past couple times I drove my 04 txt pds it came to a complete stop. Absolutely nothing. I put it in rev and its all gun ho. But when I put it back in GDR nothing. Turn key on and off couple times and starts to move very slow. Turn it off let set for a bit then come back. And all of the sudden boom full blast. I've been researching on this forum and I think I've narrowed it down to whati think is a speed sensor. Not sure where to look or what to look for. And when I do find it how can I test it. It does it very intermittently so its been hard to trace. Thx guys

If this is happening after driving a while or under a load (hills or soft ground), I would say you controller is starting to go bad. The slow speed sounds like it is overheating a going into limp mode. The time it takes you to put in rev/fwd & turn the key off/on may give the controller just enough time to cool down and then it will run perfectly again.

Is there a way to test to see which one it may be. Speed sensor or controller?

Default Speed sensor?

I accidentally posted this under club car. Not sure if it matters.

I noticed the past couple times I drove my 36v 2004 txt pds it came to a complete stop. Absolutely nothing. I put it in rev and its all gun ho. But when I put it back in Forwards nothing. Turn key on and off couple times and starts to move very slow. Turn it off let set for a bit then come back. And all of the sudden boom full blast. I've been researching on this forum and I think I've narrowed it down to whati think is a speed sensor. Not sure where to look or what to look for. And when I do find it how can I test it. It does it very intermittently so its been hard to trace. Thx guys

No lift. Thx for moving thread for me. Big thumb little phone. If it is the controller can I upgrade it for more per or torque, swap it out for factory replacement or can this one be fixed. Any way to trouble shoot it before replacing it? If I do replace anyone know about how much a new one is. Thx for you alls help. Yes I'm southern. Lol
