Default Cart Takes off without pushing pedal

We have a 1983 electric CC that when you put it to forward or reverse will take off without pushing the pedal. The solenoids are only 3 years old and we have replaced the control switch. Any help would be great.

For it to take off without pressing the pedal when you put it in gear, the first AND second solenoid would have to be stuck if this was indeed the problem. My money is on microswitches or the slide in the control box with the red cap on the end. The accelerator rod could indeed be bent, but if the problem started after you were into the control box, make sure you got the plastic stepped slide back in the right way. It'll make the cart go full speed pedal up and dead stop with the pedal down it it's in wrong.

I have a 36v 1993 ezgo golf cart. The cart also is moving without pushing pedal when put in forward or reverse when key is on. Replaced solenoid, no change. Hotwired microswitch with no change. Any suggestions
