Discussion:
No lift, tilt or sideshift

Truck runs well, but does not lift, tilt or sideshift. The pump motor works and the switches seem to as well. The battery gauge does not appear to be working correctly and is low, but it should still sideshift and tilt. Any ideas?

It appears to be an electrical problem. If I activate the contact by hand, then pull any lever, it lifts

If the pump motor is running you should have flow. my guess is you have a stuck relief valve or the pump coupling is broken.
