That lift may have brakes operated by machine hydraulics,if so, brake valve may have failed or you have plugged return lines. Confirm your main hydraulic return filter is not plugged. Also assure the tank breather is allowing air in and out of tank.

"Unicarriers - it would have to be for a dual fuel unit also. Usually a bad cam or crankshaft sensor will throw a E-27 or a E-28 code on the dash panel... If it does not light up and the bulb is bad then it will not start also."
