There is power at the wires.

However this does not ring out, I am thinking this should.

We can't see the position of the switch. It should only ring out in one of three possible positions.

It is down to the right or what I think should ring out those two pins.

Can’t tell for sure on my phone, but put your red probe on the pin at the other end. It’s opposite of what you would think.

Again, this is assuming that it’s the switch that comes with scotty’s Contactor.

Switches are backwards from what you think. In your picture above you will not get continuity. Leave the lead on the center leg and check the opposite side.

Concur. I couldn't see the switch position, until orangeman9 pointed it out. I can see the difference between the top and bottom now. You should get continuity on the terminals mentioned on both of the above posts. Test them, then move the switch to the other position. You should have continuity on the two terminals shown in your photo.

Well, time to go back to the beginning then.

What type of cart are we talking about? Any upgrades?

Does the solenoid click when you hit the throttle?

It is an EZ-GO TXT, and yes pretty much everything has been upgraded.

Most items from CartsUnlimited, heavy duty Solenoid, F/R Switch, F/R contactor, Alltrax SR48400 or 600, New motor, batteries, 1/0 cables.
