i just replaced the same axle on my 02 cougar from bass cat, the brake system is different on the new ones calipers hubs, but the axle came with everything so its pretty easy to replace
think i found the problem, blue wire had been cut previously and connected back i pushed it together and it worked need to fix that connection it seems
i am having the same problem with my 02 cougar,they are wired into the aux switch on the control panel but i dont know if i have a circuit breaker on mine or not
