Default HD F&R switch install 92 ezgo marathon

1992 ezgo marathon, FSIP 500amp controller recently upgraded to 48volts. All was well! Installed an HD F&R switch I got from carts unlimited and now I have no motion. Solenoid clicks but no forward or reverse. I installed all cables as they were on the stock F&R switch. I’m stumped!

Thanks in advance!

Did you take one of the battery cables loose before you started, and if so did you reinstall it?

Did you clock the cam. If the shaft came out and the cam moved it want run. It's not clocked to the right position.

What model # F&R are you asking about?

Yes remembered to reconnect the battery cables 👍 that was my first thought too.

Don’t think the cam moved but won’t hurt to check. Thanks for the feedback!

Scotty, do I need the jumper wire between the micro switches for
my application?

Thanks for the update.
You may or may not use the red jump between the micro switches depending upon the function of ms4. If it is used to reduce reverse speed signal with the stock controller then no jumper is used. If it is used to reduce speed with the Alltrax SR controller and or to activate a reverse beeper then the jumper is used.
I hope this helps

👍 thanks Scotty. Reduce reverse with 500a FSIP controller.

No jumper + 2 wires from the throttle potentiometer connect to reverse ms.
If you want the added function of a reverse beeper a double ms will have to be sourced from the old F&R, Ezgo dealer, or ?
