Working on a 742 telehandler at work. I'm having an intermittent problem of the fork tilt carriage not being able to tilt up. It will tilt down all day long but generally not tilt up. When key is on, engine is off, pushing the down button will make the solenoid click, but pushing the up button makes the the solenoid do nothing. Has anyone seen this problem? I'm thinking its a wiring issue but have checked the joystick wiring and have found no broken wires or bad connections. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
