Default 99 ezgo forward only no reverse

So I’m looking at buying a 99 48v ezgo the guy said it only had reverse so he switched to polarity and now it only has forward does it sound like most likely a micro switch or something worse?

If the cart has a RUn/tow switch the speed controller or the F&R toggle switch is bad.
If it is series drive with a lever F&R no run tow toggle then IDK. The same micro switch activates forward and reverse... so probably a bad F&R switch

That's one possibility, but it depends on what you've really got. EZGO had a couple different drive systems around that time and I don't think any of them were 48 volts in stock configuration. Is it a stock type Curtis controller or something aftermarket? Does it have a Tow /Run switch?

Looks like it has the tow run switch. I haven’t looked at it in person yet trying to figure out if it’s worth it

The cart is a DCS. Definitely worth buying imo. Once outfitted with an Alltrax control this cart makes more speed than SERIES and more power than PDS.
With new motor/controller there is little this cart cannot do.

It's hard to tell from the picture but I think I see four caps on each battery. That would make it 48V.

I think that's just the "speedy cap". 8 volt batteries have both posts on the same side of the case, so they are defiantly 6 volt each.
