Did anyone help you ?

Seems as though you might have a few bad switches.
Perform Ohms test for Key switch, Deadman Switch and Brake Switch.
If any of these switches have more than 1 Ohm of resistance, then install new switches.
Also, test the battery volts while Lift Motor or Steer Motor is energized.
