Reach Truck Won't Power On

Reach truck randomly shut off one day. If you hold the power switch it will turn on but once you let go it shuts off. The battery is good, I switched out the distribution board and the power switch but still will not stay on.

Check to make sure the ED button is not depressed. Most likely you either have crud on ED switch contacts or bad switch. Tap the red ED button 10x fast and then see if it powers on.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
