I have a Lofrans Marlin Low-Profile Vertical Electric Windlass 12VDC LW6903LP

If I encounter resistance wile retrieving the anchor the up button stops working.

I can turn the windlass off and back on yet the up button will still not work.

If I press the down button and let out a couple of feet of rode the up button starts working again.

This is a new issue.

It’s as if a sensor is causing this to happen but it’s happening too easily.

Does anyone have an idea about what’s going on or how I can fix this?
