Powerchair to RC conversion - Sabertooth 2x32 help needed

So i am new to the world of robotics.

I am trying to convert a powerchair into a rc vehice. I have a sabertooth 2x32 controler and a flysky fs-ia6 controller/receiver. Everything powers up with no errors, but when i use the remote and send signal, I get a loud sound from the motors and the powerchair does not move. Motors are known to be good.

I have the brake wires hooked up as follows. 2 leads going to the 24v power +, and the other wires going to P1 and P2 on the sabertooth. Attached picture before hooking up receiver. Dip switches are set as follows first one off the rest on.

Any help would be appreciated

Hi @k3vlar and welcome to our forum.

Are you using battery to power the motors or a power supply ?

What happens when you disconnect the brakes? Does the same problem happen?
