I know you are agog with indifference, so here goes:

Willy found a couple of loose wires in the controller so tightened them up, and checked all of the battery connections.

Unfortunately, what we all thought was going to be the quick fix turned out not to be the case, and the smell of hot electrics came on quicker and stronger next time we went out in the cart.

Willy returned and replaced the solenoid in the controller. That seems to have done the trick. There is still a slight smell of hot electrics (but only when you lift the seat, so maybe that is normal) and the covers on the fwd/rvs and the controller are only warm, not hot.
