Fiat OM drive problem

Hello
I have a old Fiat OM E08N year 1994 i think, that doesnt want to drive. It powers up fine, the carriage and forks work fine.


i have verify the chair sensor , the brake manual sontact - ok.

It has 2 pedal for forward and reverse.The pedals seems to be ok , i verify the contacts.
This forklift is equipped with a card controller named fiat and some numbers.When i press the forward or reverse pedal one led red it lights and the contactor for forward/reverse don't work.
the green led on the board is working ok.

Any help would be appreciated. Ive tried looking for a wiring diagram or a repair manual and can't find it anywhere.
Regards!

Should check seat switch or deathman switch (left foot pedal if fitted), electric circuit of these switches is done through a relay.

In control panel the lamp for this safety switches should stay on until the circuit is closed.

Need your mail address or mail me to send you some info.
