When a Raymond SA Swing Reach shut down in the middle of an aisle, our tech headed out to get to the bottom of the issue! 💪

After diagnosing intermittent B-0 and B-1 fault codes, our tech traced the problem to a damaged overmast cable, a blown fuse, and a failed coil driver card. Further inspection revealed a broken cable retainer that allowed the overmast cable to become crushed and short out. But we weren’t done there! 🔍

After replacing the damaged overmast cable, blown fuses, and driver card, the machine was back up and running—but intermittent codes were still appearing. Our tech dug deeper and discovered a damaged harness at the carriage rotate potentiometer, along with a burned terminal at connector JPS20 on the traction control card.

🔩 The final fixes included:
✅ Replacing the damaged overmast cable
✅ Replacing blown fuses and the faulty driver card
✅ Repairing and securing the damaged rotate potentiometer harness
✅ Repairing the burned terminal at the traction control card connector
✅ Resetting lift height and testing all machine functions

After completing the repairs and putting the machine through its paces, all functions were operating properly! Another tough electrical issue tracked down and resolved to help keep our customer’s equipment moving. 🚜⚡

A customer called in about their 2009 Mack CHU experiencing extended cranking, and our tech got to work tracking down the problem. The culprit? Failing injector cups! 💥 Time to get under the hood and get this truck back in action.

Our tech drained the engine coolant and removed the necessary components to access the injectors. After removing the rocker shaft assembly and injectors, the remaining fuel and oil were siphoned from the cylinders. The old injector cups were removed, the bores were cleaned, and swedge paste was applied before installing the new cups. 💪

Next, the new injectors were lubricated and installed, with the injector codes documented for each cylinder. Our tech reinstalled the rocker shaft assembly, adjusted the overhead, shimmed the injectors to spec, and replaced the Venturi pipe O-rings before putting everything back together.

🔥 But we weren’t done just yet! The injector codes were programmed into the ECM, the engine was started, and everything was checked for leaks. Our tech then road-tested the truck to make sure no faults returned.

✅ New injector cups installed
✅ Injectors set to spec
✅ ECM codes programmed
✅ Successful road test completed

🔩 Here’s how we got the job done!

✅ Spark Plugs: Removed all eight ignition coils and replaced all eight spark plugs to keep the engine running smoothly.

🚨🔧 SMOKING BATTERY? THAT’S AN EMERGENCY YOU DON’T WANT TO IGNORE! 🔧🚨

Our team received an urgent call from a customer reporting a smoking battery on their 2000 Ford F-450 Super Duty V10. When a battery starts smoking, it’s a serious warning sign that requires immediate attention! ⚠️

Our technician headed out to the customer’s location and got straight to work. After testing the original battery, it was reading just 11.1 volts, well below the 12.6 volts expected from a fully charged battery. Further inspection revealed low battery water and a dead cell.

After jump-starting the truck, our technician tested the charging system and confirmed the alternator was operating properly at 14.4 volts. With management’s approval, our technician locally sourced a replacement battery and returned to the customer’s location to complete the installation.

The customer called in reporting a hydraulic fluid leak on their Yale GLP040 forklift, and our technician got to work diagnosing the issue. Upon inspection, our technician found fluid pooling beneath the unit and determined that the cylinder seals had failed, causing hydraulic fluid to leak.

Our technician removed the clamp from the truck to access the cylinders, disassembled each cylinder, and replaced the failed seals. Once all the seals were replaced, every component was carefully reassembled, and the clamp was reinstalled on the truck.

To wrap things up, our technician ran and tested the unit to verify proper operation before thoroughly cleaning the equipment.

Our team headed out to a customer to tackle a coolant leak on a 2016 International MAO 25. Upon inspection, the oil cooler gaskets and seals had worn down over time, allowing coolant to escape.

Our technician got to work removing the necessary components to access the oil cooler, including the alternator, A/C compressor, accessory drive bracket, and turbo plumbing. After removing the oil cooler, the area was thoroughly cleaned before installing a new oil cooler with fresh gasket material. Everything was reassembled and torqued to manufacturer specifications, and the unit was topped off with fresh coolant and oil.

Our team headed out to diagnose intermittent hydraulic issues on a Bobcat G30E forklift that was unexpectedly losing hydraulic functions during operation.

After inspecting the electrical system and testing the seat switch, our technician discovered a cracked micro switch that was intermittently preventing the lift from detecting an operator in the seat. We replaced the faulty switch, secured the wiring, and verified proper operation.

But we weren’t done yet! 💪 After the lift warmed up, another issue surfaced: an intermittent loss of the 5V sensor reference. Using diagnostic equipment and live data monitoring, our technician traced the problem to a failing OSS module that was cutting power to multiple sensors.

Our technician replaced the faulty module, cleaned and secured the connections, and reassembled the dash. We then put the Bobcat G30E through extended operational testing, allowing it to heat up, sit, and restart to ensure both repairs held up under repeated testing.

✅ Replaced faulty seat micro switch
✅ Diagnosed and replaced failed OSS module
✅ Verified sensor power and hydraulic functionality
✅ Completed extended testing with no further issues

Our team headed out to a customer to diagnose a coolant leak on a 2023 Mack MD7. After an initial inspection and cooling system pressure test, the source of the leak wasn’t immediately apparent. Our technician continued troubleshooting, bringing the engine up to operating temperature and performing additional pressure testing to pinpoint the issue.

The culprit? A worn thermostat gasket leaking under operating temperature and pressure! 💧🔍

With approval from the customer, our technician sourced the necessary parts and returned to complete the repair. The thermostat and gasket assembly were replaced, the mating surfaces were cleaned, and the housing was torqued to specification. The cooling system was then refilled with coolant and thoroughly tested.

✅ Leak successfully identified and repaired
✅ New thermostat and gasket assembly installed
✅ Cooling system pressure tested and verified leak-free

With the repair complete and everything operating as it should, this 2023 Mack MD7 was ready to get back to work! 💪
