Ghost Issue with Travel and Deaceleration!!!!
Thanks for the info! I do have other questions on the unit? I've been getting sporadic error codes, like Left traction error, right traction error, and steering error. Cycle power at the key, error goes away, but after awhile a code will reappear.
I notice when travel forward or reverse, I release the joystick, the traction motors(left or right) is humming, then goes into a error code. Almost like the joystick is not going into neutral.
It also goes into a slow travel mode, when turning left or right.

Also, it coast in either direction for about 6to8 feet before the traction motors begin to energize with the joystick (Stopping Perposes).

I also look down at the steer electric motor, it seems to be move about an 1/2", side to side, when turning the tiller. Don't know what type of play it should have?

I'm thinking steer pot at the tiller? But the steer pot cable is link to the lift amp.

I dont have access to diagnostics...its password protected.

I hope this make sense, with the problem I'm having.

Appreciated
