Bad encoder on the drive motor if it is spinning the right speed. Most of the time it's the motor itself that needs replacing. The motors encoder is not reading right ( low RPM) or is reading right if the lift motor barely moves, so the controller is putting more voltage to it thus the higher amps. The RH motor can be changed without removing the mast unless you have a quad mast then it must come off.
