Re: Reverse Not Working after F&R Replaced
With the cart up on solid jackstands, and perhaps with a tire removed if you wish to "get at" the motor connections that way, using your meter, check to see if you getting power to your motor.
I'm assuming you got power to your F\R switch? If you got the right readings to the F\R switch then perhaps your wiring to your motor is bad (I had the coating on mine rub off right at the battery box corner and then short out) or the motor itself. Dave |

Re: Reverse Not Working after F&R Replaced
Sometimes the F&R contact continuity test is misleading. And sometimes these "HD" or replacement F&Rs have just enough contact to pass the continuity test but not solid enough contact to sustain serious amperage conductivity. If you are certain the micro switches are working and you have checked your wire connections, contact your supplier and tell them you may have a defective switch. GL

Re: Reverse Not Working after F&R Replaced
What "scottyb" said is very true! I like to use a test light on heavy circuits. You can make one easily by using a standard clear 120V bulb. It will light (although dimly) and actually need current to flow to light. I've had this same problem with F-R switches. With the cart raised on stands, put it in reverse, key on, pedal down about ¼ travel, and take an insulated tool (a plastic pen works fine) and push on the cam plate contacts a little. You may find that this will make a connection! If so, follow Scott's advice and return your defective switch! If you try and work on it, you may void the warranty.
