Default Somehow bypassed the key switch..

When my friend and I installed an Alltrax 500 controller, we somehow managed to completely by pass the key switch. I can completely unhook the wires on the key switch and the cart still goes (as well as if the key is in the off position or not inserted at all). Any thoughts on what i messed up?

The key switch is on the positive side, if You also installed a MZJ type Solenoid, check if the cable lug from the big post is touching the positive activation small post that goes to the key switch.

Sergio- you nailed it. I pulled it apart and found a small washer was not on the diode post and was connecting the small and big post. Thank You!!!
