Hyster J1.8XNT

Has anyone had issues with calibrating the lift speed on a Hyster J1.8XNT?
Had new hydraulic control unit fitted as the original had failed but the lift speed will not ramp up, replaced lift sensor on valve, tried multiple times to calibrate through the dash but still the same.
We did get it to work correctly a couple of times but as soon as you turn the truck off and on again it reverts back to being slow, also tried another known good unit but its still the same.

There are two different controllers available for these trucks. The controllers look the same but are different inside The part number may be just one number different. You need to have the same as removed or the truck will require a software update.
