Hyster j40xmt won’t drive forward or reverse

Good morning, I have a j40xmt that when you try to go forward or reverse it jumps 2 times and then won't move until you turn off the key and turn it back on. It will move if I hold down the contractor that is clicking but full speed. Full battery was driving fine I stopped moving and then went to move again and it does this. Any info would be greatly appreciated!
