No forward or reverse, does lift and lower.

Hello, first time here.
No forward or reverse, no clicking when trying. The unit does lift and lower.
I did check continuity of the forward and reverse switches in the handle but did not check the speed control potentiometer. At the controller, without a schematic, I was able to find the same continuity from the switches. I am assuming the wiring is good from the switches to the controller. Battery is 99% and I do have power at the controller. Any suggestions or wisdom would be appreciated.
Thanks, Eric

Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
