Ok I’ve checked the obvious stuff. Key switch is good. Reverse switch is good. Pedal micro switch is good.

Some notes: no solenoid click when pedal is pushed. No buzzer in reverse. 0 voltage on the small terminals on the solenoid. All wires ohm out good from origin to controller. I’m leaning towards a bad controller.

Check the red/white wire, that turns red coming out of the back of the charge port and see if you have battery pack volts on it. That is your reed switch

I've been called a lot of things before, but a genius is not one of them . That's what we're all here for to help out each other. That's how we all learn. Glad you got it up and running

Experience = Knowledge gained from expensive errors in judgment.
