genie s-60 forward and reverse and articulate left or right inop

Ive got a genie s-60 not an (x) in the shop sn/ s6006-13295
unit has a new joystick for drive and steer.
attempted calibrating new joystick several times. i believe i completed it correctly. unit will start up and with the joystick pulled to 6 o clock (downward) the unit will move until you let off the joystick and function is gone. checked level sensor. not sure if thats my issue.
board inside of the platform box is throwing a 5-1 code which is drive joystick.
any information helps.
thanks so much

* Joystick callibration:
1. Place the key on the upper control and unlock the emergency stops. (do not start)
2. Unplug the joystick you want to calibrate for 10sec.
3. Operate the joystick maximum and hold it for 5 sec. stretched out.
4. Operate the joystick for 1 sec. in rust.
5. Operate the joystick to the maximum in the other position, hold it for 5 sec. stretched out.
6. If the calibration is successful, a beep will sound.

sorry for the bad translation, hope it works
