Default Ezgo Marathon Won’t Move

I have a 36v Ezgo Marathon that I just put a brand new set of batteries in and the solenoid clicks when the pedal is pressed but the card will not move. After looking at the controller I found that the B+ and B- posts are getting hot and the resistor on the solenoid is too hot to even touch. Any thoughts on what is causing this and how to check it?

Thank you,
Roy

What year is the cart ?

The solenoid getting hot is most likely poor internal contacts. Check the voltage on the load side, it should be pack voltage. Wires getting hot is usually a poor connection. Pull them apart, clean them and make sure they are tight.

I tried it again and the solenoid itself is not heating up. Only the small resistor between the two main studs on the solenoid. Still not working
