I'm working on a 8FGU25 11103. The machine will go up, but will not lower the forks. Checked fuses, rearranged the 4 fuse relays, checked the sensor plug in, and removed the sensor. The truck lowers w/ the sensor removed. The lowering soliniod on the control valve is probably not energizing. I did notice 2 soliniods on the lift section of the control valve, any ideas where to begin looking?

Fact of the week
In Germany, the 9th of November is sometimes called Schicksalstag, the "Day of Fate" because it has been the day for several major historical events, including the horrors of Kristallnacht in 1938 and the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
