Everything in your pictures appears "aged" and somewhat cobbled together. I don't mean that offensively, but you have a really nice 4awg excellence wire paired with factory 6 awg stuff. Given the aged appearance you should probably replace all your load bearing cables. And remember, these systems can be a lot like dominos when repairing....fixing one issue can expose the next.

I'm not quite sure what your saying when you said "touched the red wire to the large ground wire...." Do you mean you jumped a solenoid wire (red) with another black wire?

Ok....just moving on for a minuet.....when you press on the gas peddle, do you hear the solenoid go "click"? That would or should be the first sound you should be hearing as that would indicate your getting power to the solenoid.

So....are you hearing the "click?" If not....what are you hearing? And\or have you tested anything with your meter to see if you have power where you think you should have power?

What I'm saying is I put a new scotty's F & R switch in and new solenoid, and when I press the pedal nothing no click no movement.


see pic, if I jump it very quick for a second it moves...

it was doing same thing before the new parts.

The confusion comes from this statement "so while checking thing out I took a screw driver and touched the small red wires on the solenoid to large ground cable and she took off". The large cable is not a ground cable

The small terminal with the red wires is either being jumped to the battery side large terminal or the controller side large terminal. I cannot tell which in the picture.

Does the solenoid click when you jumper it as shown in picture?

[tully]

yes clicks and cart moves.

Sounds like a problem in the activation circuit to me. Forward micro switch, key switch, pedal switch, or wiring in between them all.

Here's a schematic with the solenoid activation circuit highlighted.

I agree - the 'jumping' looked like it brought the (+) side of the activation circuit to the solenoid. So Basic solenoid activation circuit troubleshooting is needed following the diagram JB posted would be likely find your problem.

Thanks Johnny b, played around with it some today, I bought a new key switch, and installed that old one was in poor shape.. I thin it may me the miro switch in the pedal box.. got a new one coming friday or sat.... Will keep you posted

And thanks for all the help, this is my first cart, but already want to get a new one and fix it up nice...

Update

Well was not the Micro switch in pedal box.

So far I replaced:

f & R switch with a scotty one
pedal box micro switch
key switch
solenoid
All battery cables


Checked all wiring can't fine anything the bad.

But Like I said just that wire on solenoid and it moves...
