jungheinrich ETM 216 code 27

Not sure on the model number but by the operator's manual I found online, the code coincides with this model. The serial number of the machine is 91043337. That was the only number on the capacity plate.

I'm getting a code "027 STEER ANGLE" when I start up the machine. The steering looks for center and faults. I see that the unit has a proximity sensor on the drive housing. Its LED is not lit no matter what I do (even took it out, started the machine and moved a screwdriver in front of it. No reaction). I traced the harness back to the computer under the dashboard. All 3 wires tested good. I'm pretty sure the proximity sensor is dead.

Anyone have a manual or a better explanation of the code than what I have found in the operator's manual?

Also, the sticker was ripped off the proximity sensor. I can usually order these locally if I had the specs (NPN or PNP, voltage, etc) or if someone has the part number for it that would be awesome.

Thanks!

Hi justinm,

Please check all the sensor signal of Actual steering angle (underside):
1- Check the proximity steering sensor in front of the traction motor : if it is still ON when touch to the metal ?
2- Check the bearing sensor/encoder inside the steering motor and change the new one.
Good luck
