    Genie TMZ34/19 Man Basket Jerks When the Up Button is Pressed

    Here is video of jerking basket when the LOW SPEED button is pressed with Jib button. I added a 75k ohm resistor in series with the signal wire to the DC motor controller which drops the voltage to about 1 VDC. The basket jerk is manageable now. The issue seems to be that there is no voltage...

    Genie TMZ34/19 Man Basket Jerks When the Up Button is Pressed

    Genie TMZ34/19 Man Basket Jerks When the Up Button is Pressed

    Ya... maybe the rod is not "connected to the piston. Ill set it up and manually extend the basket and block it up. Then turn machine on and push the "up" button. Maybe it's free floating on purpose, maybe it's broke?

    Genie TMZ34/19 Man Basket Jerks When the Up Button is Pressed

    Here is my hydraulic schematic. The jib control valve is normally closed and should be closed by back to back check balls. No oil will move thru the valve when power is off. According to the schematics, I shouldn't be able to manually push the jib basket because it would pull a vacuum, unless...

    Genie TMZ34/19 Man Basket Jerks When the Up Button is Pressed

    My cylinder is single acting. It has one hose that connects to valve block at the cap end of the cylinder. There is no connwction on the rod end however there must be a breather. I can manuallt push my basket out with no resistance extending or retracting the rod. I would think that the valve is...

    Genie TMZ 34-19 Problems

    Hi I tried to contact VOODOOMOJO last summer with no luck. If you have the new blue boards and do not have the digital output board then it would probably be a good investment. I also tried to get the software from the Genie office in Washington state. They agreed to send it to me but never did...

    Genie TMZ 34/19 Error Code "0000"

    I installed the new contactor and all of the new cables. The directions were written well. The contactor is a essentially a heavy duty relay that connects the battery to the DC controller every time a button is pressed and then disconnects the battery when the button is released. My guess is...

    I broke down and bought the BLUE BOARD's. The installation took about an hour. The only wiring was to connect the new four wire harness to the key switch. When I plugged in the main battery connector the pump motor began running but the lift didn't move. Both E-Stops were pushed in and the key...

    Willie I still have the old controller that I thought was bad. Is there a way of testing it on the bench? It may be good and my problem was just the batteries?
