Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the 0957643CK interchangeable with the 0957643CA?
A: The 0957643CK and 0957643CA are both 12-volt solenoids but are not necessarily interchangeable without verifying mounting dimensions and terminal configurations. Cross-check your equipment schematic and terminal layout before substituting one for the other.
Q: What applications use the 0957643CK solenoid?
A: The 0957643CK is a 12-volt solenoid designed for electric lift truck control circuits, including pump engagement, valve actuation, and motor start functions on equipment from Crown, Yale, Hyster, and Raymond platforms.
Q: What maintenance is required for this solenoid?
A: Solenoids require minimal maintenance beyond keeping electrical connections clean and dry. Periodically inspect terminals for corrosion and ensure coil mounting is secure. Do not attempt to repair coil damage; replace the entire solenoid.
Q: Can a faulty 0957643CK solenoid damage the truck battery?
A: A shorted solenoid coil can drain a 12-volt battery rapidly and cause excessive current draw that may damage battery cables, contactors, and control modules. If the solenoid fails, remove it from service immediately to prevent secondary electrical damage.
