Hi,

We have a Toyota 7FBRE16-3. The battery is supposed to be quite recent & lightly used, and the connectors between cells look ok.

However, right after charging, the battery meter immediately shows empty, and the system is in "crawl home mode", i.e. moves slowly.

I'm really no pro with these, and I don't have a proper load test, but the battery measures 48,5V after a recharge. I've also measured the voltage while lifting forks and pushing/pulling the mast: it drops to 47,6 and then comes back up.

Is the battery really just totally dead, or is there something I can check/reset/fix to get more hours from it?

Thanks,

Petri
