After a full charge the battery indication/hour gauge still reads at very low levels. The batteries are testing out at full voltage (around 24v). I've taken the gauges out, cleaned the contacts and reassembled. Still get the low readings. New gauge is upwards of $300 so was hoping there would be any other diagnostic tests I could run before spending that kind of money with a 50/50 chance it fixes my problem. Also find it troubling that exact same thing is happening on two machines. Other than what appears to be a faulty gauge, the lifts performance is fine. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
