You are going to need a voltmeter if you don't have one and a little about how to use it. There should be two big wires connected to the big terminals. One goes straight to the battery positive and the other big terminal to the controller B+. A loose connection can cause heat. The high current flows through these big terminals when the solenoid makes the clicking sound it connects the battery + to the rest of the of the cart. I have no idea why your solenoid is getting hot but if it don't click you need to fix that first. When you get your voltmeter let us know and some of us will try to help you.
