How does a golf cart electric motor go in reverse?

A golf cart electric motor goes in reverse by using a simple mechanical or electronic reversing system. When the golf cart is in forward mode, power is sent to the motor in a way that spins the wheels in the forward direction. To switch to reverse mode, the reversing system changes the flow of electricity to the motor, causing it to rotate in the opposite direction. This allows the golf cart to move in reverse. The specific method of reversing can vary between different models of golf carts. It is important to consult the manufacturer's manual or seek professional assistance if you need to operate the reverse function on a golf cart.
