What to do if my Vestil S SERIES unit doesn’t move when controls are used?
If your Vestil Forklifts unit doesn’t move when the controls are used, here are a few things to check: * First, ensure that the battery voltage isn't low (less than 17V) and charge the batteries if needed. * Check the fuses after removing the back shroud, there are 3 fuses. * If those aren't the issue, there may be a problem with the motor controller.
What to do if my Vestil Forklifts unit will not charge?
If your Vestil Forklifts unit will not charge, there are a couple of things you can check: * Verify the output voltage on the charger; it should be approximately 28 volts, but you will only get a reading when it is connected to the batteries. * You should also load test the batteries.
What to do if my Vestil S SERIES unit will not go forward, or reverse, and the Belly switch will not function, but the unit does turn on?
If your Vestil Forklifts unit won't move forward or reverse, and the belly switch isn't working, but the battery gauge lights up, check the following: * First, check the fuses and replace any that are blown. * Also, check for broken wires or loose connections by locating Pin 7 on the Molex connector at the motor controller and tracing the wire back to the tiller head, verifying continuity to the throttle assembly.
What to do if my Vestil S SERIES unit will not go forward; reverse works; belly switch just kills unit?
If your Vestil Forklifts unit will not go forward, but reverse works and the belly switch just kills the unit, check for broken wires or loose connections. Locate Pin 2 on the Molex connector at the motor controller and trace the wiring to the contactor, verifying the connection. Also, when forward is depressed, there should be 24 volts on this wire from the Molex connector to the contactor.
What to do if my Vestil S SERIES unit will not reverse; belly switch does not function; forward ok?
If your Vestil Forklifts unit will not reverse, the belly switch doesn't function, but forward is okay, check for broken wires or loose connections by locating Pin 12 on the Molex connector at the motor controller. If there is still no output voltage for pin 12, replace throttle assembly.
What to do if the belly switch on my Vestil S SERIES Forklifts does not function, but forward and reverse are okay?
If the belly switch on your Vestil Forklifts does not function, but forward and reverse are working, check for broken wires or loose connections by locating Pin 13 on the Molex connector at the motor controller. If there is still no output voltage for pin 13, replace the switch.
What to do if my Vestil Forklifts unit will not go forward, or reverse, but belly switch still functions properly?
If your Vestil Forklifts unit will not go forward or reverse, but the belly switch still functions properly, locate Pin 6 on the Molex connector at the motor controller. If there is still no output voltage for pin 6, replace throttle assembly.
What to do if my Vestil S SERIES Forklifts unit will not go forward; the belly switch functions; reverse works?
If your Vestil Forklifts unit will not go forward, the belly switch functions, and reverse works, locate Pin 11 on the Molex connector at the motor controller. If there is still no output voltage for pin 11, replace throttle assembly.
What to do if my Vestil Forklifts unit will not go reverse; belly switch works?
If your Vestil Forklifts unit will not go in reverse, but the belly switch works, check for broken wires or loose connections. Locate Pin 3 on the Molex connector on the motor controller and follow the procedure to verify the connection.
Why Vestil Forklifts unit will not raise, but the motor runs?
