Daniel,

I assume you have an EV 100 system? When you turn on the key switch, do you show any codes on the dash? You said you checked all fuses using ohms. I have found using a volt meter is best as sometimes a bad fuse can still show continuity. These systems have multiple cards also. Since the steering is working I assume the battery is good. Since you have lost hydraulics, I would verify voltage. If you have a 36 volt operating system, battery at full charge should read 38 to 38.5 volts. If it is reading 36 volts, battery needs to be charged. These lifts used a card mounted under the hydraulic handles. Verify all wiring is good. Connections, fuses, contactors and control cards were the biggest issues with these trucks.

The hard to do we do right away. The impossible just takes a little longer.

Fact of the week
The word "robotics" was coined by Russian-born American science-fiction writer Isaac Asimov who first used the word in 1942 in his short story 'Runabout'. He characterised robots as helpful servants and as "a better, cleaner race."
