02 ezgo txt 36 volt not working

[stonewolf2009]

The other night one of my employees brought this cart back to the shop and it was good. Less than 10 seconds after he got off of it, i got on to bring it inside to charge. When i pressed the gas pedal down it had nothing. No go, no solenoid click.
I put my meter on the pack and got a pack charge of 38.8. So it still should have moved. As i was pushing it inside i could smell warm pastic. Batteries and cables felt cool to the touch. I touched the controller / solenoid cover was very hot.
I placed it on charge for tge night and started looking into it this morning.
Since i had no solenoid click i started by replacing it with a brand new one. I still had no click. I had a coworker help me test the wires from the gas pedal back to the solenoid. We had continuity on all 4 wires, and could see the pack charge when the gas was pressed. We also checked the key switch, all good.
I did a motor test, and it was good.
I then had a thought that the controller had burned up(since the cover was hot when the issue first started). I took a known good controller off another 36v ezgo. I placed it in the cart, hooked everything back up. Still nothing.
I placed the suspect controller on to the second cart, and it worked.
So then i thought that possibly the new solenoid was bad out of the box. So i took another brand new, out of the box solenoid and hooked it up. Still have no go, and no solenoid click.

So now im right back to where i started. Any thoughts on where to go from here?

Problem solved. It was the reed switch.
