I wouldn't be surprised with anything electrical that the new plug could be bad.

If you want to re-wire direct 24 I would run 6 gauge wire with an in-line breaker, this will decrease the resistance of the current flowing from battery to motor. you old system had each battery running on seperate 10 gauge wire to terminal. Simple repair, plus you can put inline circuit breaker. One thing that comes to mind is that you could probably run just a one 6 gauge wire for positive and jumper, and believe you might be able to get by using a 10 gauge ground from existing wire. Maybe a electrician can speak up on that.
