Have a RD5700 reach truck that has an intermittent code 806 for SVS sideshift problem. Ran through the troubleshooting guide but since the problem doesn't duplicate frequently enough I'm having difficulty pinning it down. I'm leaning towards the SVS solenoid itself or the wiring from the load handler to the carriage but don't want to just throw parts at it hoping it fixes it. The code pops up most often when the reach is extended which leads me to the cable bundle but no matter how many times I extend it after resetting the lift it won't happen again until the lift sits for a while. Between the two choices which is the most likely culprit?
