Troubleshooting A Raymond Electric Forklift & MORE - Forklift Service Calls

In this video, we tackle a Raymond forklift that was left out in the rain and started throwing random codes. It was throwing code 8A, and the entrance beam sensors were not working properly. learn the essential steps to diagnose and troubleshoot common issues in Raymond electric forklifts and other popular brands. From understanding battery performance and motor problems to tackling electrical faults and hydraulic issues, we'll walk you through practical techniques and expert tips. Whether you're a seasoned technician or a forklift operator looking to understand maintenance better, this video equips you with the knowledge to keep your electric forklifts running smoothly and efficiently. We also look at a Chinese electric forklift that was not charging correctly. Turns out, the customer just needs a 220 AC outlet and it will charge correctly.

Good stuff man! The signal on that entry sensor can be bypassed. The receiver (3 wire sensor) signal wire is a 5 volt pull down. If you ground it, the module sees 0V all the time and allows you to travel. If it sees 5V it thinks the sensor is blocked. This would only work if the sensors have failed. There is a separate module for this system, if that failed you would have to replace it or turn off the feature with the software as you mentioned.

@@octaviocarrillo5954 interesting, I tried to bi-pass it a few times but I had no luck. The sensors were functioning, it just had a bunch of water and acid around the eye lids. I didn’t know about grounding the signal wire. Thank you 🙏🏻

[@theforkliftguy]

@@davidvolmgren3032 yeah it has gel batteries instead of a big industrial battery. I guess it was cheaper that way

Do you do much on Crown stuff, Im a crown engineer and would love to get more info from you more experienced guys, as I'm finding that fixing forklift trucks is mainly down to experience rather than being taught in a classroom environment.

[@theforkliftguy]

@@chrisbarber1187 yes sir, I actually enjoy working on crown lift trucks! What do you need to know?

[@SouthBisaya]

Sir I got a manual of Raymond . Model 7500/7520

China uses 220v one hot leg. Would need a step up transformer. USA needs two hot legs single phase for that.

[@theforkliftguy]

@@ernestmccollum2397 correct 👍🏼

[@rogerthomas1982]

It's nice to get lucky sometimes. Hey, that cardboard on the overhead guard, you should tell them to take it off. They probably won't do it but you don't want them blaming you when they have an accident because they couldn't see what was going on at full lift.

[@theforkliftguy]

@@rogerthomas1982 that’s actually a good point 👍🏼

[@robblount1299]
