Discussion:
Problem moving forward or backward with Hand break not coming off.

hi,

I have two Hyster H3.5FT, one 2012 and the other 2014, They were both washed throughly yesterday and today they start fine but they will not come into gear and so they will not move forward or backward. The parking break sign stays on and the N for neutral displays the whole time. The 2012 was driven about after the wash without any issues yesterday, but they will not move at all today. I would appreciate any advise/suggestions.

Many thanks in advance.
