Default g8 one speed SLOW!

I've got a g8 that only goes one speed, slow. Batteries new and load checked. Throttle pot checked ok. Diodes continuity checked ok. Is it the controller? I'd hate to spend a fortune on one and it be something else. Solenoid relatively new and seems to be working, clicks. Reverse is of course faster.

Problem solved! The micro switch for the backup buzzer was the problem. Someone suggested I unhook it. I did and it runs fine now. I don't understand it but it kept me from spending big bucks on a controller or new cart..

how did you unhook the micro switch for the back up buzzer? I'm having the same problem and the buzzer is annoying anyway

If you don't replace the micro switch, at least put a toggle switch in it to slow it down when the kids are driving it.
