The relay for the Entry Bar alarm might be defective.

I have replaced at least 3 relays within 10 years. You can remove and clean the relay and reinstall, then perform test drive.

You might have no other choice except to install a known good used Relay or just install a new Relay.

The only symptom that you'll get for a malfunctioning Relay is very very slow travel speeds (half-mile per hour).

Another idea is to be certain that the stem of the Accelerator Potentiometer is actually rotating properly when you push and pull the Multifunction handle.

The Accelerator Pot could be defective, too. You really need to use a Simpson 260 to test the resistance of the Potentiometer.
