Default Reversing contactor installation

I just purchased a 36volt contactor for my ’95 EZ Go and I’m having trouble with the installation converting it from the rotary switch. My cart has 5 cables attached to the rotary switch, not 4 like are shown in the instructions. Mine has S1,S2,A2 and two M- cables.

It appears that the S1 connects to terminal 5 and S2 connects to terminal 8.
Where should I connect A2?
What about the two M- cables ?

Copy and pasted from my response to your email moments ago.....

Make your cart match this diagram attached. (install directions) This will be best. If your controller has A2 terminal you will not use it. No cables to controller A2.

The photo shows my old switch before I began the upgrade.



3 o’clock is S2 which I’ve connected to terminal 8 of the contactor

9 o’clock is S1 which I’ve connected to terminal 5 of the contactor

6 o’clock position wire goes to terminal 4 of the contactor

12 o’clock position are two wires with one going to the controller to A2 and the other going to the motor A2



Here’s what I did with the two 12 o’clock cables:
Scotty B told me to remove the one that goes back to the controller terminal A2 since it's not used in the installation. He said that my cart had a 4 terminal controller that was not used for very long.
I connected the remaining 12 o’clock cable to terminal 3.


It still would not work until I reconnected the green wires that were apart from when I removed the old switch.

That’s it.
It seems to run faster now too.
