Error code 817 only get when frozen

I found that the resistor had a bad wire so I reattached it worked good for one day. Lift is in frozen environment 90% of the time and gets stuck when forks are on second mast and wont go up or down. When it thaws out though it will work for a couple hours. Error code 817 is not in my manual it skips from 816 to 818 so I dont even know what it means. I am thinking it is the encoder that needs to be replaced but I dont like just throwing money at something and hoping it will work.

(1) HGTRS2 is open when FLS is still closed. Check distance between HGTRS2 and mast, correct distance is.20 -.25 in.
(2) Is FLS open below staging? A2.7.4
(3) monitor HGTRS2 input. A2.4.2
(4) check voltage at CA411-4 on Access 4. 13.8v above freelift, 0v below freelift. Could be a bad mast cable
