Did this start all of a sudden or gradually worsen? Is the cart modified a tall? When did this start? Any info will help.

On a PDS cart, the controller does not "know" it is in forward or reverse. I would suspect the F/R switch in the dash first. Then look into the controller / motor.

Like Scotty asked, did this just start? Any prior symptoms??

The switch will often give some indication ..... like one day you had to flip it twice to move? ....then nothing several days later..

it acted up a week before it did the same thing but after a little bit it would go forward. but it would always go backwards.i took it in and they said it was a bad battery.they replaced it and it ran fine.. but then it sat for a week and it did this all of a sudden and will not go forward anymore all it will do is learch forward but it will go backwards..

"They"????

Sounds like an ITS going bad with the "lurching". May be a controller issue? I'd still make sure your switch is good first...
