JLG T350J\/T500J Motor Brushes (70003736) – Fixes 9 Flashes Error<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Our JLG T500 manlift rental<\/a> began giving our customers trouble on their jobsites.\u00a0 The symptoms of their problem was an occasional, not consistent, error resulting in 9 flashes on the JLG control panel.\u00a0 To be more specific, the error occurred only when the operator wanted to use these functions:\u00a0 lift up, jib up, telescope in and out, outriggers up or down.\u00a0 And to make matters even worse, the problem was only intermittent, meaning that sometimes the operator could get several minutes of use out of the lift before it failed again with 9-flashes.\u00a0 In every case the operator had to stop the machine and reset it before trying to use it again.\u00a0 The intermittency of the problem made troubleshooting very frustrating because sometimes the machine would work, and then it wouldn’t.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0We hooked up our analyzer and it gave the following error message upon failure:\u00a0 “Power Module Failure – Check Power Wiring Check Mosfet Short Circuit (9\/9)”.\u00a0 This diagnosis is better than the general error mentioned above, but it is still very vague.\u00a0 What it means is that there is a problem with the continuity of the 24V electrical circuit anywhere on the entire lift!\u00a0 And again, to make matters worse, our lift was losing electrical continuity only intermittently, or just enough to really frustrate our customer trying to get his work done.\u00a0 JLG lifts T350J and T500J require constant electrical continuity.\u00a0 Any time this continuity is broken the solenoid behind the batteries disengages and shuts down the machine.\u00a0 Only stopping and resetting the machine will re-energize the solenoid.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Searching the internet for “JLG Power Module Failure” or any combination of the title above revealed only a few results, and none of them were helpful to our intermittent situation.\u00a0 The suggestions we found on the internet recommended we check the batteries, the battery cables, and replace the power module.\u00a0 Luckily we have multiple lifts so we were able to swap all of the aforementioned.\u00a0 None of them solve the problem.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0What the problem ended up being for us was the brushes inside the motor assembly located in the pump.\u00a0 Inside this container are four brushes that contact the motor shaft and spin it at 3300rpm.\u00a0 During this machine’s 250 hours of use the brushes inside the motor have worn.\u00a0 They haven’t worn completely enough to totally disable the machine, but only enough to give trouble intermittently.\u00a0 Due to the wear, but electrical continuity was sometimes present and other times not.\u00a0 This explains why every function that we used that required the motor to run is also the function that would intermittently disrupt the continuity and throw the machine into the 9-flashes shutdown.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0We are not certified to give advice on fixing JLG lifts.\u00a0 We are only giving our account of what happened to us, and hopefully this will help someone else trying to fix their problem.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n
