Wheel switch not working

Anyone have any experience troubleshooting the drive-wheel circuit on the 20MTs? The motor by the wheel is getting power but when I twist the handle throttle it doesn't work in either direction, turtle or rabbit. I kind of suspect a fault somewhere in the switch circuit. But would appreciate the benefit of anyone's expertise.

Thanks!

is the switch at the bottom of the control handle out of adjustment or not working,when you pull the handle down it should push on a switch at the bottom of the control handle
