My forklift truck not lifting shows error code L306 and L222. When i changed the joystick the L222 code disappeared remaining the L306 yet it still do not lift. I am suspecting the electrical controller but i do not have any to test it. Any idea please. The forklift is moving, sideshift, tilt are all working just the lifting.

I have swapped the solenoid and also checked the continuity of the wires all are okay but still the error code still there and the forklift cannot lift.

iIn the book L306 says short circuit via solenoid lifting.

Check the lift solenoid, swap it with a tilt solenoid, it may be shorted out. Also check the wiring.
