2007 EZGO txt 36v series microswitch question
Cart stopped suddenly when kids were riding..no forward or reverse, but buzzer sounded in reverse. After basic inspection, only way i could get the cart to move was to jump large terminals on solenoid.Figured it was bad.. Got a new solenoid and replaced, still no go! Solenoid was not clicking, so i searched further. Found microswitch in pedal box was faulty, replaced and tried, and toasted small red wire to solenoid, and blew that micro too. WTH??? Controller or f/r switch????

Welcome to BGW!
Sounds like the diode got installed backwards on new solenoid. Banded end goes on small terminals with red (+) wires attached. Note: bad pedal switch was probably original problem. |

Cart was running when it stopped.
Damaged wires (possibly between the peddle box and solenoid) or diode failed in closed condition? IN any case you are looking for a dead short. |

Most likely the rewiring eliminated the problem... those micro switches burn like little fuses when there's a short.
