Have a heavy duty F&R and the solenoid clicking while in reverse leads me to believe that's not the issue

Clicking in reverse and no movement is exactly what leads me to the F&R. If the solenoid were not clicking, i would say check microswitches @ F&R, but they are working fine.

Ok sounds good. Any way to test without buying a new F&R first?

If the solenoid clicks in F&R and the motor run in one direction the problem is in the high amperage delivery system.
Since you have a HD F&R we assume series drive and since the series cart goes in any direction we rule out batteries, motor, controller, solenoid, and solenoid activation switches and wiring. That leaves cables and F&R. simple test for the F&R is swap cables at 9 and 3 oclock locations. If the problem swaps direction the F&R switch contact has failed.

Hey, at least the forward wasnt the problem, so when it quits again, you could still drive home.
