Thank You for the heads up!! This is the only crown unit in our city I work on as all my other customers have Hysters, so I do not have much help for tech support , I will check the sensors tomorrow.

sounds like either the Fwd or Rev optical switch is sticking. you can check it the analyzer menu. May be able to clean them but will probably have to replace them. Hope that helps.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
