Clark TMG17:
Lost forward and reverse

Was moving fine, stopped with no warning. Turn key off, turn key back on contactors engage hydraulics work power steering works, step on the gas pedal it moves maybe 1 inch and immediately unlatches the contactors and will not try to reengage them until you cycle key on/off again. Does it have a shorted drive motor possibly?

I am not getting a trouble code on the digital display but I do not necessarily trust that it is working as I have not gotten any code displayed out of this machine in years.

Hi all just thought I would update this post for anyone who needs help in the future. Code was -68. (I had to install another display to read codes as the one on the truck was dead.) It ended up being a bad slave controller. truck is up and running again. A special thank you to Swoop223 for his help on this.

when the fault occurs what number is being displayed on the dash display? it should display an error code while the fault is active.
when you cycle the keyswitch it resets the error until it trips again when you mash the accelerator pedal.
so turn on the lift, press the accellerator pedal and when it trips look at the led display and record what number it shows.
It may show the battery charge level during normal operation but it should change when the error occurs.
