Okay you have a PDS cart. First thing to check is the reed switch. There's a how to in the EZGO resource forum on testing/bypassing the reed switch. Make sure you have the run/tow switch in the tow position when working on the electrical system on the cart. It's very easy to fry the controller on a DCS or PDS cart by causing a arc. Hopefully you didn't blow the controller when you saw the sparks fly...

Look in the EZGO resource forum for the PDS troubleshooting guide. It has some tests in it. It's very possible you blew the controller when you had the arc or when the red wire you mentioned burnt.
