Did the spring on your brake safety swith break or the switch fail?-I'd try to by-pass it first to see if that's the issue- just disconnect it and plug the two wires it was plugged into together

no i have bypassed the last year...

Have you verified the wires haven't came loose from the switches? That happens to me occasionally.

SoapKart 09-04-2012 11:42 AM

If your good there I would go through your connections in the electrical box. Pull everything apart and put back together to verify nothing has came loose.

COBRAHMA 09-04-2012 11:50 AM

yeah i checked switches every thing was connected i disconnected and reconnected the switches,ok thanks Soap, i will give that a shot... and go through the electric box

That's a fact. I've had my fair share of those when working on these toys.
