Don't know much on the other stuff, but I'd check the wiring first.  Sounds more like there's a short, as the brake usually (not always) decreased the resistance the more the pedal was pressed.  Get a cheap multimeter and check the wiring to the mainboard, and the POT resistance while you're at it.  That'll tell you if there's anything wrong with the wiring or the POT, or if you need to look elsewhere.

i fiddled with the pot as it was loose and turned it around so screws face top like the accelerator and now it works, but the hi/low shift turbo button doesnt work when pressed, i think it works when the shift is down, so looked in cab and saw wires coming from button and one is twisted around the microswitch for the high low? how is this button originaly wired.
