Error code 12856 While lifting

Looking for some help with a unit showing a code 12856 while lifting. All appears to work fine.
I understand it to be a possible issue with the Manual Hydraulic Position sensor being out of range?
Where is this located?

Your help is much appreciated.

The fault is for the lift section sensor. It is on the bottom of the spool. This fault is for reading low so check for open wire or socket/ pin out of position.
