TRUCK STOPS RANDOMLY

truck stop randomly sometimes while driving, other times while sitting with key on. Will go up and down and reverse beep goes on as well as power steering. It will not go forward or reverse and does not flash a code.
I checked connections and looked for any bad wires by the counter weight.
Sometimes when you push backwards with another lift with the battery unplugged it will start working when plugged back in

we ended up replacing the accelerator switch, it would randomly cut out when hooked to the computer, a young mechanic from Monsey ,NY figured it out.

Confirm your brake and seat switch function correctly. assure the wiring / connectors are ok. If you still have an intermittent traction loss check the wire harness which runs from brake switch to (traction enable) controller. The harness runs under the battery and can corrode.
