Hi there swoop223,

One other thing I noticed is with the scissor lift jacked up, all 4 wheels off the ground and the brake released, with the engine off the right front and left rear wheels turn by hand, the left front is very hard to turn and the right rear will not turn at all. these are the 2 new drive motors that the Genie Service tech told me I need to replace, whatever the problem is now might be why the 2 drive motors went bad?
I'm still checking out the 3 position 4 way valves that controls the flow to the drive motors, I checked for power at the coils and that seems ok at the proper time.....

With the engine off and no pressure shouldn't the wheels turn freely with the brake off?


I checked the pressures at the function manifold test ports and all are good.

Front = steering end
right = engine side
left= lower controls side

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
