Probably need one with a bad throttle to see if it has enough sensitivity.  
It plugs into the throttle. Switch will illuminate green led. It should be steady through full range.  
Red led should come on after green and get brighter from zero to full throttle.  
I have a feeling that most are switch failures. As it’s not a switch but a sliding set of contacts. Both contacts must be noiseless. An instantaneous open will trigger a fault.

I’m trying to determine the best “fix”.

Almost ready to test hall effect solid state throttle switch replacement.  
This should be easy enough to test on my car.

Dave it’s hard to read your Photos with text in RED. Next time try White or a white box with RED text inside? It’s very hard to read

Made you look though! I was too lazy to change it.

Looks like you’ve got another great idea brewing here.

Please send it to the Lake House.  
I have a throttle that is acting up and this “Test unit” should sort things out

Do you have a picture of the throttle? I have a 2014.

I don’t know what -13 is.  
-11 is throttle switch stuck on. Does banging the pedal to the home position help? Always faults?

Yes, always. 1 goes away, the other one takes over. Back and forth.

Your pedal resolved my code issues, but cart won’t move. Have power to the controller and the motor. 76.6v. Frustrating.

What is cars history?  
Did it run previous?  
Run with your pedal?

Power to controller. That means that you get the clunk. Main contactor pulls in with key and later with throttle pedal?
