No forward or reverse

When u turn machine on and go to forwards or reverse the contacts pull in then machine starts to barely move then it bangs and contacts release. U have to turn off to get it to do it again if u don't contacts won't pull in.

sorry i read turn and went down the wrong path
if you have an LX handset you can plug into the card and get current fault code
otherwise test each component
capacitor usually tests accurately

Already checked those and every other switch known to man. I'm thinking it could be a bad capacitor. Changing it out tomorrow with a spare.
