Okay here's the pictures with the switches in various positions. Any time its disabled it goes to the unidentified failure

Hi ,This is what I would do. For the moment forget about ET and the unidentified fault.
Confirm you have 24v and a good ground at the lock solenoid. if not use a jumper wire and supply 24v directly to the solenoid and try. The hydraulics should work.
If they don't you need to check the items I mentioned in an earlier post.
If they do, you need to check that the fuse is suppling 24v to the switch, that the switch contact has closed and the continuity of the wire to the lock solenoid
Remember that ET is only monitoring the switch contact concerned with the lift kick out circuit.

G..G..G..Granville.........!! Fetch your cloth.
Agree with Mark. Make sure you have 24V and a good ground on the Lock Solenoid. If you have that you ought to have an activated pilot system.

Interesting to see that on all four ET screen shots above the "Hydraulic Filter Bypass Status" is shown as "Bypassing".
It may be nothing (esp. in view of the registered oil temperature) but also worth wondering what might be plugging the filter that it bypasses..? Maybe warm the machine up and see if the status changes..? If it doesn't change status when the machine warms up maybe a look in the filter might be appropriate..?

Tyler, did you get any info from the operation side (as opposed to the previous mechanic) regarding what the machine was doing or not doing..?
If no, is there anyone you can ask who was running the machine before it quit and get as much info as you can..?
