Fault Code 16

I am currently experiencing trouble with a EC3500 Forklift. When I move the forward / reverse switch into either position it will move about 3 - 5 ft and then throw fault code 16. Any help with this is appreciated.

Code 16 is for the traction motor stall timer. Check your wiring and connections between the drive motor, inverter and logic. I'm willing to guess you have a bad bearing encoder (speed sensor) in the drive motor.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
