Discussion:
Not shifting into forward

The forklift has been parked for a couple of years and recently has had the vaporizer and radiator replaced. In moving the unit out from where it had been parked, we discovered that it only would engage in reverse but not forward. You can hear and feel the solenoids when reverse engages but nothing in forward. What are some good test procedures to identify the problem?
