Yes big issue with rebuilt Raymoan control handles. So much time to tear one apart and fix it yourself, then have horn button or tilt switch fail after you install a travel pot. So you buy a complete handle for $2000!...but Had many rebuilt handles fail on install, or months later while I was a Raymond tech.
Now see other brands, like Yale, Cat with bullet proof handles that rarely fail except for damage. Replace travel pot on Yale orderpicker
in minutes. Raymond OPC beside it takes hours!
Other makes have $1000 tag on rebuilts, why is raymond double that for a cheaply made, unreliable flimsy POS costing $2000?
