No forward and reverse Code F9

I have a Toyota 5FBE20 serial # 10318 With no foreword and reverse movement. I have steering and mast functions. You turn the key on and a alarm starts beeping and the display reads 11 mph for a few seconds and then starts flashing a code F9. I have no info on what a code F9 is so any help would be appreciated.

I figured it out. Code F9 is for rear steering potentiometer. It disables drive because the unit needs to know where the rear wheel is to know which way to spin the drive motors. I ended up having a mouse chew up some of the wires. Repaired the wires and now everything works.

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.
