Forward is not that fast

Correct after switching s1 and s2 back to original and switching a1 a2 it is now slow in forward then reverse, and the travel doesn't match the f/r

Okay, if I'm understanding you correctly, without regard for the actual direction the cart travels, the speed is slower when the F/R is in the R position.

If so, transposing the S1 & S2 cables (again) ought to get everything back in sync.

Sounds like both the A1/A2 cable and the S1/S2 cables got mixed up the last time somebody worked on the F/R switch or the motor.

I misspoke When i switched the S1 and S2 wires to original and tried switching A1 A2 the cart was still moving fast forward and slow in reverse but the F/R lever was opposite of the direction of travel still

Okay, regardless of which way the cart actually moves, does the cart move Slower when the F/R lever is in Reverse and Faster when it is in Forward?

Also, as the cables are now positioned, the S1/S2 cables were switched from their original position, but not switched back when the A1/A2 cables were switched?

Correct.

My question: Okay, regardless of which way the cart actually moves, does the cart move Slower when the F/R lever is in Reverse and Faster when it is in Forward?
Your answer: No, it is faster when it is in reverse position and slower when it is in forward position

There is something not right about the F/R switch mechanically, but I'm not all that familiar with the mechanics of F/R switches, so I'm going to yell for help from people that know more about them.
