No Start, code 2000-12

I just purchased a non running 2010 Yale Forklift, propane. The last owner said they were just driving it and it quit. It has been sitting for a year. I installed a new battery and it cranks fine. Showing Fault 2000-12. I tested the yellow and green wires at the connector on the steering column with the battery disconnected and it read.48 ohms I reconnected the battery and turned the key on and it reads 0.15 volts. I tested the two termination connectors that I could find and one was 145.5 and the other was 128.9 I also want to add that the headlights stay on unless I unplug them, don't know if that's related or not. I also want to add that the computer on the firewall under the plastic cover looks new, so I think someone tried to fix this machine. But I great deal on it so I'm good with that just don't want to go on a parts replacement binge trying to fix it. Any help would be appreciated.

according to the DTC code sheet there are 4 faults with this number. All of them related to the canbus circuit.
DTC 2000-12 - CANbus Comm Error VSM
DTC 2000-12 - CANbus Errors (Mazda ECU)
DTC 2000-12 - CAN Tx Failure
DTC 2000-12 - CAN Rx Failure

those yellow and green wires go to all the nodes in the system and all usually return to the vsm so you'll need to check the connections and wiring for corrosion or damage. If no damage is found in the wiring then it is possible that the component is bad, in this case it gives indication of the ecu or vsm.
The possible causes listed are:
A. TERMINATION RESISTOR(S) OPEN CIRCUIT
B. OPEN/INTERMITTENT CIRCUIT ON CAN HI, CAN LO
C. CAN HI AND CAN LO SHORTED TOGETHER
D. OPEN CIRCUIT ON POWER/GROUND TO CAN CONNECTED DEVICES
E. STG ON CAN HI
F. STS/STB ON CAN LO
G. CAN CONNECTED DEVICE FAILURE

Fact of the week
According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
