contols don't work

I installed a new motor and new contactor now the drive motor does not work with the handle controls It works fine if I press the contactors. Any help would be much appreciated specially since paying that hefty price for a new motor.
thanks in advance

The brake switch is right there beside the new motor you replaced did you check it?
