No Power to the Platform But can raise platform from the Ground control

I Have a Skyjack SJiii 3219 s/n 262174 The issue i'm having with it is I have no power to the joystick Box. Did find a Bad Wire in the Harness to the platform. Replaced the Harness and a New Joystick Box. Still have no Power. But I Can use the Ground control to Raise the platform and Lower it. And the Batteries are showing Good. Don't Know what Else to look for Can some one Help. Thank's

Ok Got Back to Look at the Lift. Pulled out the Battery Charger to get to the switch and found that the push Button Was Bad. Order a New one and Installed it Now I Have Power to the Joy Stick. All is Working Good. Thank's For the Help.
