"it's not rocket surgery"
Operator dies while using lift, falls off, the deadman foot switch then comes into play. Happens all the time.

That sheds a light on it for me. Thank you very much Edward.
and I liked the the joke about the dead people not being able to operate the truck, although sometimes it seems like some of the operators are brain dead.
Thanks again

a serial number always is a good idea to be sure we are looking at the same controller.
01 is almost always the seat or operator presence (no dead people drive forklifts, so it can not be a "dead man foot switch" circuit, it has to be "operator in place foot switch" circuit).

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.
