lift motor

My crown is not lifting periodically. After it sits for a bit, it will lift the forks just like it is supposed to. I have changed out the lift contactor with no change. Is there anything else besides the motor that this could be?

I think l remember that on the right side of the mast there is a switch if it is not working or sticking will stop the lift motor. Also make sure that your battery is up you could have a lift interrupt happing that would stop the lift motor. Also if the contactor is coming in then check the motor cables for voltage if you have battery voltage at the motor posts than the motor is bad.

Fact of the week
Brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf ("Rudi") Dassler split their shoe company after WWII due to a bitter feud, and established the rival companies of Adidas and Puma. Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
