From what i can see in my info the dead man switch is common to both of these codes in the troubleshooting section. Either wiring or the switch itself.

Thanks. I have discovered that you can bump the steer collum and the forklift will work for a second. I'm now thinking a broken wire. The forklift is in an area that is exposed to salt water.

A7 is for Parking brake alarm, E3 is return to Neutral.
Have an email address to post in your profile in case anyone has any info for you?
