Carolina that had spider webs in it. Her trailer full of horses had pushed her all the way here. Get you a can of electrical contact cleaner and clean them really well and see if it does it. Spray it on the truck side connector too.

However, it could still be the controller as well.
If you have a bad ground why does the controller work manually, but not with the pedal? It is the same leads and contacts either way. All that changes from one to the other is the activating system (hand versus pedal).
