jbrity,

Intermittent problems are often diffiucult to trace.
Suggest you disconnect all connectors that exist from the battery to the motors and look for any corrosion of the contacts. A 5 or 10 times magnifier is useful.

Connecting a new battery may have made a contact more solid then before. I would try the old battery again and see what happens.

Wishing you good luck with your troubleshooting.
