Hello all. Have a 45/25 runs fine but lost all 3 joystick controls. Everything on the toggle switches works both up and down but none of the joysticks do anything. Thoughts??
Would be hard to troubleshoot this at a website because the Z45/25 has been in production for many many years and has had a lot of changes of components over the years. The first thing you need to do is download the manuals for your serial number from the Genie website, the service/maintenance manual will have the wiring diagrams to help you troubleshoot the proportional functions.
Thanks for the reply. I was hoping because i lost all 3 joystick functions someone would have an idea. I guess its time to get reading the manual
Yes, If you're going to own that machine, you need to start teaching yourself those schematics, or hire a high dollar wrench to come out. What's the machine serial number
If your toggle switches are working but the joysticks are dead, I’d suspect an electrical fault rather than hydraulics. Could be a blown fuse, loose connector, or a power feed issue to the joystick controls. Worth checking the wiring first.
my serial number is build date 8-98 z-45-008218 and cannot find correct engine or repair manuals either
I think this is the right manual on Genie's web site. I not sure how to post a link here for it, I have never down that. Look through the Z-45/25 options until you find part number 52709.
thank you
Hope that helps you.
