Turns on and shuts off as soon as key returns

os030ecn24te089
Turning the key in start (spring return) position makes relay to click, safety blinker turns on and if keep pressure on the key to hold in start position you can see battery charge etc. but lift doesn't move or honk. releasing the key effectively turns whole thing off.
Any idea what it can be?
Or where I can get a wiring diagram/repair manual?

Alex,

Failed switch or wiring. Need to check mast prox switch inside battery compartment. Make sure all wiring is still in tact. Also, the foot switch could have failed. Make sure the brake release switch is spring loaded. Failed springs allow the switch to constantly make contact. You also have a prox switch for the steer motor. Make sure all the wiring and sensor is still in good condition. Some lifts have safety arms that must be in the down position for the lift to start. Could also be other issues with electrical or fuses. Good Luck.

The hard to do we do right away. The impossible just takes a little longer.

"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."
