I have an EP16KT s/n ETB4B01613 that has a code 33. Conditions: key on, seat switch closed, left and right drive function normally. Steering pump motor functions normally. If any hydraulic lever is actuated, line contactor will open and a code 33 is set. I removed one cable from hyd motor to simulate open motor circuit and when hyd lever was actuated still set code 33. I pulled head cap and buss assembly and took T1P and D1P out of circuit. I tested both and both tested bad. I also tested pump motor for short to case and resistance as compared to a known good motor. No short and resistance for both motors was around.07. (out of circuit) on my DMM. I installed new t1p transistor and d1p diode. Drive and sreering still functioning normally. Still sets code 33 if any hyd lever is actuated. I once again pulled motor cable
And actuated hyd lever. It set code 49 that time which i think is p motor open circuit. I pulled G and E wires off of new t1p and code 33 is set as soon as key switch is turned on. I did visual inspection and smell test of driver board no obvious damage and no burned smell. Ihave verified wiring continuity from t1p to driver board. I disconected cs3 conector and turned on key it set another code but not a 33. I don't remember the code. Battery voltage is good. And display indicates full charge. 36V lift by the way.
Where do I go from here?

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.
