My electric golf cart lost its reverse can I fix it myself or do I have to take it in to a service center?
@gerryr, this could be as simple as the reverse switch being the problem. It is a mechanical contact and could be not making the connection. You can check that by switching the wires from the forward/reverse switch and see if you now have only reverse. If so, you know it’s the switch. You did not tell us if your cart has a backup beeper and if it still comes on. Also, let us know if this cart has a dash mounted toggle switch.
mine was the micro switch on the passenger side of the forward reverse switch. I just bent the prong put on the lower side of the metal just below the white tip of the switch. This way it pushes further into the switch housing.
