Discussion:
no forward or reverse

Hi and thanks in advance. I have a hyster e65xm2 lift that wont go forward or reverse everythin else works fine. I noticed that the battery symbol is flashing meaning the batts too low or wrong voltage selected. I know the battery has enough juice and i have tried a 36 and 48v battery with out success. Any help would make my day..i mean month as i have been working on this issue for ever!! Thanks

If you are not getting ANY fault code, then check several things. Make sure that the parking brake is released and that the parking brake switch is working correctly.

Disconnect the battery and press the horn button to discharge capacitors and reset the system.

If lever is in neutral, move to forward or reverse and listen for main contactor.

Does the display show any fault codes? Have you checked the main traction power fuse? Sometimes the fuse will pass voltage,but fail under a load.
