Started as a complaint with no forward, you could hear the controller whine, but didn't have enough power to pull, reverse worked well. I charged it, came back, no difference, I swaped diodes in heat sink by fwd, rev contactors, and I had fwd but no rev, actually it moved very slow in reverse, but the controller, or chopper whined really loud, I guess that would be the big capacitor on the front firewall. Put a new diode in it, and worked well untill I left got a call back, no movement what so ever, contactors kicked in and out right away. I retraced my steps by checking all connections, and replaced a lug on the cable to the buss bar on top of the fwd rev contactors. Now I have fwd again and it whines out in reverse. When those forklifts move, is the whine a chopper, or SCR sort of affair.? I'm completly back to the beginning. Any Toyota guys out there, could really use your help

It is the DF1 or DF2 diode
sorry it took so long to reply, been very busy. dont have that book in pdf. have paper and i have been told it's not available anymore. if you post your e i will get something to you if you still need it.
tks for reply, if you have any info on this it would appreciated, even just a componant location page, are you talking about the big silver capacitor loooking devices on the front cowl?
difinately scr. usually a directional problem is not speed controller related as it has no idea which direction its going (about like our congress). i would go back and check the rectifiers (big ones) look very closely at the contactors sometimes when people change tips they loose the insulators behind them and that makes a frame short. but my bet is on the rec's. test them for reverse bias shorts with a high voltage continuity tester (like a handyman)
