S800tx locking itself out randomly

[b3harris]

I have a s800tx that just lately when im driving along just stops dead. Like i am coming off the position pad at the back. Any thoughts guys?

Does the parking brake rod come out? Does all Hydraulic controls lock out too?

My guess would be a faulty/broken wire going go to the operator pad (operator presence switch). It needs to have voltage to maintain operation...no voltage equals lock out.

I changed mine to a dashboard switch, and at times my switch goes bad.

Or the switch under the pad is going bad.

I’ve had the same problem. My dealer has never fully fixed it on mine it's the fuse box try tapping on it lightly should work hopefully ours would start but controls were locked up

Ok i switched a few fuses around and it ran for about 2hrs. Then locked up and now it wont start.
The lock isn't engaged but the drive lever is locked up solid.
The second 20 amp fuse was blown. Replaced it and nothing.

Mine was never a fuse but just tapping on the fuse box always works for me
