I have done a lot of reading but haven't found exactly the right answer. Here goes my first post:

I have inherited a 1985 club car 36 volt car. Installed two new 12 volt batteries, painted it and having a hard time finding the right wiring diagram for my cart. I have the manual but there is no detail on the forward and reverse switch. I have sketched the diagram of the original wiring and will post it.


The two lead at the bottom of the switch goes to the positive terminals on the batteries. Does the location or the position in the series of batteries determine the reverse speed? (in the diagram below, reverse would use the two 6 volt and the one 12 von battery and forward would use all 48 volts).

Is this wiring diagram or theory correct?

Sorry if these questions are remedial, this is my first experience with a golf cart.

Thanks for your help!
