When it is faulted, the contactors do not pull in at all. When it isn't faulted, they all work correctly.

We have had this forklift for several years and this issue just began to happen around a month ago.

To answer Crownie, it is simply just quitting on me and not doing a PMT. To get it going I have to unhook the battery and reconnect it sometimes several times and then it all of a sudden will work, but it isn't always just hooking it back up the first time and it goes. It is very picky on when it decided to kick back in to work.

I did swap out the capacitor with another crown we have at the company that is working with no change.

Also, turning the steering either way no matter what doesn't change anything either. Also, when it is running correctly, when I turn it either direction, the motors run just as they are supposed to as well.

The use of "hello" as a telephone greeting is attributed to Thomas Edison. He is said to have suggested it as a simpler alternative to other greetings, such as "Do I get you?" or "Are you there?".
