kendo ยท 2013-10-23 10:47

Can anybody help me out with trouble-shooting my dis-able switches? Lost all hydraulics the other day as if the handle was pulled up. Motor kept going. After stopping motor it wont re-start as if the handle is still down. does anyone have the wiring diagram and the hydraulic diagram ??? Thanks

    You will need to get 3 posts on the forum before you can send Private Messages (PM). Once you have 3 posts send me a PM giving the complete machine Serial Number and your e-mail address. I'll fire the schematics off to you. Please DO NOT post the details here.

    Interlock circuits can be tricky things. Let me try and give you a shortcut; Find the wiring harness where the left hand armrest hinges. Cut it open and check the individual wires for continuity

    is it a micro switch style lockout? is the switch adjusted correctly damaged or has it failed
