They are WAY underrated in current capacity for the application and if the kid drives it pretty much steady "til the batteries go dead, they will overheat and the contacts will squash out of position into the heat-softened plastic.
They MAY test OK with an Ohmmeter, but NOT carry the current needed to run the motors.
You need to check with a Voltmeter across each set of contacts in use on each switch in use for the particular function that doesn"t work UNDER LOAD, in other words with the "gas pedal" depressed to figure out which contacts have the voltage dropped across them.
Better put it on some sort of kickstands sop it doesn"t run away from you if it DOES kick in!.
If there are TWO or more contacts failed, it"s gonna be like a series set of Christmas lights to troubleshoot

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
