You should start your own thread but, since your problem seems dangerous I will attempt to explain...
I think You have a resistor coil cart.
The V-glide may be melted. Not returning to zero
The solenoid may be welded closed
You need to disconnect the battery mains and investigate these things

yes i should have added to look at the resistor coils also as scotty says they are melted more than likely.................and controller is more than likely toast so in any case your gonna need controller, soleniod and resistor coils.....with new batteries you put in you,ll be driving a new cart..........also please make sure you have the batteries wired in right.................

All the parts for your Golf Cart are Golf Cart Specific including the battery cables.

Can you start a new thread and post pictures of the battery bay and the various components and damage so we can see what you are asking about.

Sure can but can't post pics for about an hour. Where do I go to post a new thread? Thanks again
