Open Field fault 1,3

Quick rundown
Motrec tugger
Sn:1101731
Curtis 1244 controller-replaced twice with rebuilt, then brand new
Motrec 24v motor replaced twice with rebuilt, then swapped to advance 24v motor
It throws fault code 1,3 on led, handset shows open field. This unit hasn't moved or been driven at all since this started.
I have replaced the battery cables from the e-stop all the way to the controller, fixed a bunch of janky looking wiring, replaced contactor, e-stop. I've got about 20 hours labor in this ****, and I'm running out of patience. If I need to provide more detail, let me know, thanks
