Hi All,

We have an old Hyster rx30m order picker (EV100 controller) that we love, but has started to give us some problems.

We swapped a faulty rectifier that fixed a problem about 2 years ago of the drive only engaging in one direction.

Now we have a problem that when it gets cold (ie. 6-10deg celisus), the picker doesnt want to move at all (ie. forwards and backwards). The drive wheel will turn left / right, and the contacts on the realys click on, but still nothing. However, if we heat the reactor conductor area, it starts moving again!

We have replaced the reactor/conductor, both rectifiers but still having issues. Its not throwing any codes on handset.

Any ideas appreciated!!?!?!?
