What is your full model and serial number? It sounds like the Operator Presence System is not sensing a operator in the seat. Like Prentice said - check seat switch and seat sw wiring. How many times is the ! light flashing? This is a code to point you in the right direction.

We worked on a Komatsu Diesel in the summer( Might be the same??) they have a solenoid lock on the bottom of the control valve. Check Seat switch and and voltage to solenoid. I think you can physically pull out ( Watch out for the mast dropping...Safety First :) )

When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
