No lift from platform

Hello All, I have a skyjack SJlll3219 scissor lift that will not raise from platform. I have inspected all the harnesses, replaced the contact blocks for the emergency stop, swapped control boxes. I do have lift from the base. Also my emergency stops will not light up unless I use the lift from base position. I'm thinking bad key switch but just looking for other thoughts.


Thanks

Mr Morris,
the keyswitch is a good guess but it could be more than that.
if you go to skyjack's website and look in the manuals section you can find your service manual by serial number. It has a pretty good troubleshooting guide by symptom and tells you were to check it with a flow chart.

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
