release control handle

This unit drives for a few metres and then stops and wants u to return the handle back to neutral then goes again and does the same thing
I have been through the brake switches and replaced them,I do have 5.3 v at connections coming from the pot to the board even in its menu it reads correctly and the unit has learnt it but the problem is still there... am I right to say the platform control card is faulty? Please help

What is the resistance on the brake coil? The coil driver circuit for the brake is found on the Tractor Manager card not the Carriage Control Card. You said that you changed the brake(deadman) switches, but is the signal getting to the Tractor manager card? The system has to have inputs from both to release the brake. Let us know what you find.
