Error code lookup for forklifts and material handling equipment

Enter the code. Narrow down the cause.

For trucks from various manufacturers, with a description and numbered checks in our own words; under Manufacturers and series you can see the coverage per series. In the browser on a PC as well as on a phone at the truck.

Plus fleet, inspection dates and error documentation depending on the plan; reporting problems by QR code at the truck and service cases are planned.

The database is growing continuously. Manufacturer and brand names are used for identification only; there is no affiliation with the manufacturers.

Why ForkScan Pro

Less searching through binders and PDFs

An error code on the display, the truck at a standstill, and the answer is somewhere in binders, PDFs or with the manufacturer's service.

Without ForkScan Pro

  • Searching for error codes in PDF manuals and binders
  • Every manufacturer names and explains its codes differently
  • Searching for a long time before it is clear whether service needs to be called

With ForkScan Pro

  • Enter the code and read what it means according to the source
  • Error codes from various manufacturers in one database, presented consistently
  • Go through the possible checks in order; work on the truck by qualified personnel

How it works

Three steps to classify an error code

  1. 1. Enter the code

    Type the code exactly as the display shows it. In the app, which is being prepared for release, the camera can read it as well.

  2. 2. Read the meaning and the checks

    You see what the error means according to the source and possible checks in a sensible order. Work on the truck belongs in the hands of qualified personnel.

  3. 3. Document the incident

    Record the error on the vehicle with notes and photos. This builds up an error history.

Apps for iOS and Android, in preparation

In the warehouse, in the workshop, on the road

The apps, which are being prepared for release, work with the same data as the customer portal. On a tablet the list and the details sit side by side; on a phone the error code is at hand right at the truck.

  • Type the error code or capture it from the truck's display with the camera
  • Fleet, inspection dates and documented errors, in sync with the customer portal
  • With a plan with fleet management: the offline pack with the released error codes for your fleet, also without a network
iPad: fleet with the list of vehicles and the details of one vehicle beside it (sample data)
iPhone: result for an error code with description and checks (sample data)
Android phone: search by manufacturer, under “Your fleet” Jungheinrich, Mitsubishi and Still (sample data)
App for iOS and Android in preparation.

Features

Error codes, fleet and documentation in one tool

Error codes are available in the browser; fleet, inspection dates and error log depending on the plan. Offline use and the camera scanner come with the app for iOS and Android, which is being prepared for release.

Error code with description, code structure and possible checks in the app

Error codes from various manufacturers, presented consistently

Still, Jungheinrich or Mitsubishi: you enter the code and read what it means according to the source and which checks to consider. Manufacturer and model names are used for identification only.

  • Error codes from different manufacturers in one consistent format
  • Possible checks, numbered and in our own words
  • Tools and spare parts with part numbers once they are recorded for the code; the catalogue is being built
  • You only see released codes with a documented source; community tips are kept apart below and are not individually checked by us

Also included

  • Offline in the app (after release)

    With a plan with fleet management, the app downloads the released error codes for your fleet to the device in advance, not during the trial; codes already looked up and the fleet remain available without a network.

  • Tips

    Users share their fixes and mark what helped. The best-rated tips come first; they come from other users and are not individually checked by us.

  • Camera scanner in the app (after release)

    In the app, the camera reads the code from the display. Recognition runs on the device.

  • For the whole team

    Several users and devices depending on the plan. The customer portal shows which devices are connected.
