Default Yamaha G-16 not moving

Ok, here goes I know someone can help me as never failed
on this awsome forum.

I was moving on cart Saturday and next thing just stopped.

The motor is turning belts and sounds same as always when starting front clutch is not closing around belt (is that what engages engine to kick into gear) cart is just standing still

No Fwrd or Rev.

Anyone have any idea what issue could be?

If it is revving up and not closing you may have a sticking or damaged drive clutch.

Its not going fast its moving at a normal when just starting out
I know in normal operation engine revs when clutch closes correct ?

What is a solution to rule if clutch is bad and if sticking what is
way to unstick it

MD it is still not clear if the engine is actually running, the engine starts slow and as it revs up then the clutch closes. A strong battery will inch the cart along.

It is turning strong, the cart will jerk a bit and move a bit
if I drop shifter from net down to drive as I metioned
the belts are turning its as if the clutch wont close
to get it to rev up or kick into gear but I just want
opinion think its the drive clutch, should that not
close regardless ?
Battery is fully charged and reads 12.5 volts

If it doesn't rev up then maybe it's not running at all??
