Truck dead

We have customer who has a dead truck. It's a 2001 model and the batteries are good but truck won't do anything. Having read an earlier post relating, the fault codes should be "18" (i.e. On the BDI, the second from right LED is on, and the fifth from right LED is on).

Can anyone point us in the right direction ?

Service life of a forklift is proportional to how well it is maintained.
Showing items 1 - 2 of 2 results.
Crownie, top man, will have a look and report back.

Fact of the week
According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
