hello, we have this scissor lift here that is throwing a brake code. i busted out the multimeter and checked the ground wire to the brake assembly and it has good continuity to ground on both brakes (0.2 ohms)

we ohm'd both brake assemblies at 20ohm.

tried swapping brake plugs side to side and the code didn't change to 3315 so we think the brake assembly is ok.

ohm'd the long wire back to the computer box with good results at 0.2 ohm
also checked the brake wires in the motor power cable with good result as well.

sometimes the machine will work fine, and other times it will throw the code after moving 1 ft. maybe there is a fragile wire?

anybody know where else to go from here? i am at my witts end

thanks so much ! :)

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
