Discussion:
truck stopped working when i was operating

so the reach truck i was using just cut out while i was traveling along, the brakes stopped working and the truck didnt stop until i hit a wall. i wasnt going anymore than 5kmh.

what would of caused this to happen? i had to turn the truck off and on again in order to get it to move and it has been ok since?

any ideas on why this would of happened? there was a spanner on the dash but since i started and turned this off again it has gone.

many thanks,
James

go into the diagnostics and check the error codes (if you have access to the maintenace menu's. Error history should reveal the last error if it is a stored code.

let me ask, when you are driving can you hear any clicking coming from the drive motor while driving? (kinda like cards in the spokes of a bicycle wheel sorta sound?)
