Ran into an issue recently with my electric CAT forklift. Used it all morning then plugged it in to charge. I came back and it had a full charge but it would not move in forward or reverse. The forks would not raise or lower either but they would tilt forward and backward and go left/right. Also when I turn the forklift on everything on the panel lights up correctly showing the charge and all that but a constant beeping noise now sounds that had not previously been sounding off.
Any tips or ideas?

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
