Discussion:
code 51

I have a Hyster E50XM2-33 sn F108V19668X that is giving a code 51. It happens while the hydraulic functions are being used. The thermistor on the line contactor gets hot. All the control fuses are good. Any help will appreciated.

Hi, do you know the value of the Thermistor or P/N.
Thanks
