Dang! Tested prior to putting the tires back on, and everything was working properly, i.e. fwd/rev. After getting the tires back on and back on the ground, I have no reverse. Either selection in the f/r switch = forward. What now?

Ha! Cancel. I'm getting ahead of myself. Hadn't reconnected the middle wire on the fw switch. Sorry.
Going riding! Check in later

And upgraded brakes.

How tall are the tires you're running?

If they are stock height (18"), you're spinning the motor at 7,700RPM and I exploded the armature in my stock PDS motor at that RPM.

Have 20 or 22'' tires, can't remember.
My key switch doesn't seem to do anything now. I have to use the run/tow switch to turn it on and off. Weird, but not as troubling as the fried solenoid that I cooked yesterday... ****, these things are fragile! Is there a way to bench test it to see if it is actually done? There is a 2 volt drop from the down side to the upper side. 38 on the bottom connection (which was slightly loose) and 36 on the top.
