Komatsu FB18-M2:
Steering issue

I have a FB-18mh-2

Ok so I have a very hard steering wheel. It's a electric forklift.
So I pulled the panels and the steer cylinder is moving but I don't hear the motor turning on. So I'm assuming That's why the steering is so hard. I'm trying to figure out how the motor is activated to see if it's a wiring or control issue or a bad motor or pump.

Everything else on forklift works fine.

I can't find a manual and the dealer said it would have to come straight from komatsu and could be a few months.

Fact of the week
Lincoln was known to have more than one stovepipe hat, each typically seven or eight inches tall. It is said that hats were important to Lincoln: They protected him against inclement weather, served as storage bins for important papers he stuck inside their lining, and further accentuated his great height advantage over other men.
