Discussion:
hydraulics wont operate while driving.

Hi all.

Iv got a 6fbre16. Iv had the drive motor rebuilt as it was shuddering and arking out. The unit now wont operate hydraulics while your driving. Strange i know!!
the hour meter has also zero'd out. I can verify that the unit is not in demo mode.
In the menu it wont let me turn the hour meter on.

Anyone have any thoughts? i cant seem to find a workshop manual for the unit either.
