It will crank, just not start? I would start with all the basics first: fuel, air, and spark. You said you replaced a fuse that was blown. Is there any accessory (lights, etc), that are grounded to the frame of your cart? All accessories should be grounded to the neg. post of the battery.

Just a thought, check the switch under the gas pedal.

If you jump solenoid and it worked,
Check:
Igintion switch and wires
switch at accelarator pedal and wires going to solenoid from pedal.
Check voltage at solenoid on small wires. If you have voltage there solenoid will probably be bad.

There are several single connectors wires around the solenoid make sure they are all plugged in.

and if you don't think it anything electrical, and it cranks, then its fuel probably.

sounds like electrical though, a falty part, or a bad connection...
