jungheinrich ETV reverse traction contactor fault.

Hi
I am trying to find the meaning of an error code flashing '7' then 'A' alternately on a Jungheinrich ETV-13.5 6E 100-650DZ. It has lost reverse traction but if I manualy push the contactor in everything works. there is still voltage to the coil side of the reverse contactor, but no action & the flashing error code appears.
Forward Traction & lift/tilt are perfect.
Can anyone shed any light on this problem please??

Thanks, as of yet (this morning) my engineer on site has only checked for voltage at both forward and reverse contacts, which are the same, But..... the original fault he went to was the Line contactor dropping out intermittently when traveling in iether direction. The only rectification was to switch off and back on at ignition. I suspected a weak coil on the Line contactor but following a careful clean of all connections, the current fault manifested and the error code showed up for the first time. ?

Hi there

If you have voltage at the coil both negative and positive then the coil should energise unless you have an open circuit contactor coil. Check coil resistance against the forward contactor and see what the difference is.

Or mechanical fault on the contactor assembly itself.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
