Key switch continuously energized

Key switch constantly energized. Removed switch and cart still wants to run in both forward and reverse.

Also notice cart creeps forward without depressing accelerator

Sounds like a micro switch stuck, but without some details (year, model type, etc.) we have no way of telling.

Here is a similar issue with an '83 model resistor cart. http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/elect...ey-switch.html

If it is a resistor cart, sounds like a welded solenoid like nole said, depends on what kinda cart you have?

You know, I see the ineffective key switch problem brought up a lot in this forum. I have the problem myself on a 2003 CC DS. The problem is so common that many of the cases must share a common cause. Suggestions and speculation aside (nothing wrong with suggestions and speculation; that's why we come here), I have never found a solution described and documented as being effective. Am I missing something?
