Quoted from Choggard:Just replaced both switches and the damn car still tries to drive down off the ramp.. Could it be a connector problem?
Have you checked the switches in switch test ? You could have a broken wire elsewhere killing them, carriage not hitting them, etc.

Do the switches work though in switch test, not what comes up in error when you hit enter on the diagnostics button.
Them coming up in error means they aren't working. Bad switch, car mech not hitting them, broken wires there or at other switches.

Quoted from Choggard:Switch 45 is bad too...
Fix it.
Can be a bad switch, can be a broken wire at switch, or a broken wire from the switch to the board in the head.
A meter can help you figure out if it's the switch or wiring in short order.

Quoted from Choggard:Alright fixed all switches, but the car only goes forward but not backwards.. Why would it not go backwards?
If power goes through a relay on a small circuit board, try reflowing the solder on that.

Quoted from Choggard:Could you tell me which connector would have to be reflowed?
Not connector.
If there is a small circuit board with a relay on it, for the motor. Pull that board and reflow the solder on the parts holding the relay to the board.

Quoted from Choggard:Alright I see it, but it looks like it held on by solder in the middle of it.. That doesn't look easy to get off
Not that one. Those are resistors and are fine, your motor does turn.
I mentioned relay, plastic box with leaf blade points inside.
LTG : )
Quoted from Choggard:So take them off and resolder the joints where the connectors are at?
No, all the spots involving the relay. The relay is soldered to that board to hold it on and for the leaf blade switches inside.
