[QUOTE="Axel, post: 95868, member: 11648"] Have installed one new actuator and new complete hand control harness from previous trouble shooting escapade. Re-grounded any ground wire I could find. ...Turned out I had an actuator out of neutral since I had previously opened it out of curiosity while resealing spools. Machine worked great for a few weeks after I figured out how to reset neutral. Then, on one sunny hot dry day, it started locking up. sometimes the tilt, sometimes the lift. In both cases I was getting a blinking LED on left handle. 5 blink code which means Actuator, sometimes left light, sometimes right. Yesterday I opened up the machine to see if maybe something was loose or a spool was leaking, nothing.. ran the machine.. it coded a few times, but not long enough to require restarting the machine. Basically I would be moving the lift and it would freeze for seconds at a time with the LED blinking and then continue as if nothing happened. After a few hiccups like this it worked fine for the next 10 minutes during which I moved a huge burn pile. Any thoughts? I'm worried about reliability... [/QUOTE]
