Have a Crown 3020-30 that has a list of codes in it and runs good most of the time. The codes in memory are
217
202
208
305

The 208 seems to be the biggest offender which I have read to be steering feedback. This truck is sometimes parked on a rough portion of floor which may impede smooth movement of the steering. Could this be causing this code?

The only occasional problem that happens with the truck is that when up past a level where the micro switch that is mounted to the back of the platform is not depressed it will only move in reverse. The problem being when you are up high in a rack you are stuck in the air. The lift still works but no reverse. Forward works fine. When you depress the micro switch on the back of the platform this solves the problem and the lift will once again move in reverse. I have a stick to depress it when I am stuck in the air. Any thoughts on what this could be. I checked the normally open switch and it is functioning correctly so the switch doesn't appear to be the problem. Thanks in advance for any help!

According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward.
