Not exactly 4x4 tech, but I wanted to post up to see if the brain trust here could help me troubleshoot an older Hyster S25XL (B010 series) LP forklift. I picked it up not running, but driven to where it was parked (Thanks @jeepinmatt for helping move it!!)
It had a ton of wires disconnected and it looks like the main/large power wire from the alternator/starter melted at some point. New battery/key acquired and I have gotten it to the point where I can get it to turn over, but won't actually start. To be fair, I haven't cranked on it for an extended amount of time because I want to get the wiring closer to where I feel comfortable with it. Is anyone here familiar with these forklifts or have a link to a site that sells a manual that they trust? Most of the sites I have seen with manuals that you can purchase look like scam sites.
Right now I have an orange wire that has 12V with key on, brown wire with 12v key on, a black that's a ground and the big red melted wire that are not connected. I believe at least one of them goes to the oil pressure switch/sending unit on the side of the motor (that I believe is a Mazda m4 121 4 cylinder). It sounds like there were two versions, UA/VA models - I can double check on that if needed.
