Does not go forward or reverse when pressing the pedal

[Havinfun]

Equipped with a 48v conversion. When you press the pedal it does not go forward or reverse. I replaced the micro switch as recommended and that worked for about 30 minutes. When you switch from F-N-R your hear the click. Batteries are currently showing 53.2v on the meter.

I do not run it in water or use it on the beach.

Do you have any suggestions?

Planning on replacing the micro switch again to see if that’s it. If it is, what could be fouling the micro switch?

I believe it may have one or possibly two diodes on the solenoid if it looks like a small jumper wire. I would hope the switch is a quality one as I purchased it from a local golf cart dealer. I went by there yesterday and they told me to check this and that and after about the tenth trouble shooting recommendation it was clear as mud. One thing he did say was to check and see if anything may have overheated. I do not see any discoloration. The travel on the micro switch is in the correct position.

I ended up bringing the cart home to try and get it going again. I keep it at the lake which is about 3 hours away.
