I am trying to troubleshoot our forklift. We are having problems starting when the control lever is in neutral. It must be in neutral to start the machine, but we often have to wiggle the control level to engage the starter. The problem is getting worse and we are unable to identify the source of the issue.

Where is the killswitch for the ignition located? There is no wiring coming out of the control level, it just goes straight in to the transmission. What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.
