    I have a JLG G6 42A telehandler and it will only move in 1st gear and when it does you cannot give it any throttle only idle speed. There are the red lights for fuel, temp and oil psi and they are all 3 flashing. There is no sequence to them only flashing all together. The code it shows on the display is 91:3. Does anyone know what this error code is? I cannot seem to find it no place thanks.

      Hi. SPN Code 91 + FMI Code 3 + Red Light = Accelerator Pedal or Lever Position Sensor Circuit (Voltage Above Normal, or Shorted to High Source)
