Hi Guys.


I have an old lansing bagnall 5.2 s73024 Serial no: 6120274.


Recently one the cell went down and i am having difficult to source a replacement a help in right direction would be appreciated.


But in meantime i took an advice from a friend, and i disconnected the faulty cell and by pass the connection along to the next inline cell, and charged the battery pack.


But it works only for few minutes in forward motion and then it stops, however the reverse and jib movement is perfect and sounds to have enough power, but the forward movement does not work.


Could someone please shade some light on this problem.



PS: I have looked at the contactor for forward it does not click in at all, but the reverse is ok.



Regards

Ash
