Discussion:
Forklift wont go!

Hi guys,
Boss bought a TCM Electric Forklift (second hand) at auction a few weeks ago. Put it on charge for the first time last night. When I went to use it again today, only had one bar on the battery indicator and the hour meter had been wiped! Won't move, the mast doesn't work, even the lights and indicators don't work.... Display doesn't react to anything that I do (Handbrake on/off, Fwd/rev, Mode switch etc.). Has anyone got any idea what might be wrong with it?

Thanks,
StrawberryMan

Showe one bar,meaning battery is still weak thus cannot move.

Check and charge respectively until maybe it shows 50% battery indicator.

Fact of the week
The first practical visible-spectrum LEDs were red, not white. The red colour was the easiest to produce using the semiconductor materials available at the time (the 1960s). The alloy gallium arsenide phosphide (GaAsP) used emitted red light.
