Brakes locked on Caterpillar 216B

I’ve got a parking brake light flashing (again) and machine lost movement function and brakes are locked. Has anyone here bypassed the ECM and brakes temporarily, just to get this loaded
On the trailer and to my shop. Thanks

Don't try and bypass brake solenoid it sensitive could cause ecm or solenoid damage.

Does seat belt light go out when bar is down and weight on seat

Yea, seatbelt light goes out. Bucket etc works, park brake light flashes and I don’t
Have any forward or rearward movement.
The ECM is already fried, the bottom of the ECM case is corroded away and has moisture inside board.

Ohm check solenoid I think it's low amp like 1.5 to jump solenoid with full power will burn coil right out and not help cause... If you jump with power supply from seat bar it might work ? I'd unhook connector and not back feed ecm

Finally figured out how to bypass that piece of junk computer. Straight wired the park brake valve and ran power and ground to movement joystick upper solonoid.
