Discussion:
Contacts won't engage

The fork lift will not move or lift. It worked the previous day. The battery is fully charged. The battery indicator shows no voltage though. Horn works, lights work. Beeper works when put into reverse. Manually depressing the contact, the lift works. Voltage drop is minimal. The model/serial# is Yale ERCO30ACN (2004). This is an electric forklift. Any help is much appreciated!

Solved! The Battery indicator was bad. Luckily I had another identical Fork lift to swap out the part. Who knew the battery indicator would prevent the forklift from working. Must be in series.
Hope this can help someone in the future.
