Default very slow rxv

Hey there, I have a 2015 electric RXV that hardly moves. It will creep forward or reverse at less than 1mph, and eventually stops. 3 weeks ago I was able to drive it from cold storage to our heated shop at regular speed and thought it was ok. Previous to that it was doing the 1 mph thing though and was out of service. The cart has 1 year old batteries that test good. I swapped the charger receptacle with a known good one from another rxv and nothing changed it still is sluggish. I am continuing to investigate, can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you for any input!

Probably your speed sensor.

Yes very easy to do. Just unplug the sensor and unscrew one torx screw and replace with a known good one. I see now no luck.

Check the wires from the speed sensor back into the wiring harness to see if there are any problems.

So I've inspected all the wires and they look superb still... is there anything else that might be easy to check? I hate to have to pay LEGC to come in and help us out but may end up doing so... thanks!
