Crown PE4500:
Pallet truck shows code 346, will not drive

The pallet truck will not drive or lift. Code 346 reads for a "DC bus charging timeout" problem, but the current battery on this pallet truck is able to properly power another pallet truck. Strangely, after picking the pallet truck up with a forklift to re-locate it, the pallet truck started temporarily working again. However, there still must be an underlying problem.

I appreciate it man, thanks for the promptness in your reply, that's what I assumed you were referencing, the dude who trained me always referred to it as a solenoid switch I guess it just stuck with me. Thanks again

The lift solenoid is round and has 4 terminals, mounted to the lift motor

When you say lift solenoid do you mean the solenoid valve or solenoid switch?

I agree with Yidneck. The common "get me by" is to give the lift sol a whack to unstick the contacts. I would replace it. It will most likely happen again soon.

It's all just nuts n' bolts.
You probably have a welded lift solonoid that was temporarily repaired when hitting the machine when lifting. Replace the lift solonoid.
