	Please explain why the equipment manual has apparently not been accessed to look up the meaning of this fault code. Please explain why a simple telephone call to the equipment manufacturer was unable to reveal the full reason for this fault code during the call. __________________ "Did you get my e-mail?" - "The biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place" - George Bernard Shaw, 1856

	As PW stated and after doing some extensive searching myself on the net, you have 2 choices- (1) if you plan on keeping and repairing this fork lift yourself, buy a factory service repair manual, *and would pay itself off after the first break down, not having to pay for a service tech to show up (that's if and when they show-up) (2) Contact a Hyster service ~~mechanic~~ tech __________________ Confucius once said, “ Ability will never catch up with the demand for it".

	Agreed. Hyster guards its manuals and charges for them. I had one recently and I just called a pro in to fix it. I don't recommend that the OP even try to repair it. (Advice that will go unheeded, I'm sure) Why do we bother?
