Hi there,

We have a Crown 4200 with a problem. When i select forward or backwards en want to drive forwards or backwards the forklift moves very slow. I It looks like the brake of the left motor is not releasing. When i activate the towing mode both brakes do release and wheels are spinning freely. When i activate drive mode i only hear one "ping" of the brake solenoids. In towing mode i hear two "pings" when the brakes release. I jacked the front of truck to see if both motors wil spin in drive mode. Only the right motor will spin fast, the left motor will spin very slowly. There are no error codes on the display. I also calibrated the brake and throttle pedal. I hope there is someone who has some ideas?
