You just saved me big dawg. Thanks 💯💯💯

I had some friends set one up in my 73 Ford Econoline, I wired it up, been using it for years, had to repair the socket for the remote, added ubolts to secure it, kept pulling lose, refusing to work, I have no safety switches, just that stupid seat belt, gonna cross that out soon so I don't have it on the arm. These lifts are fantastic, durable, so long as there is minimal electronics on it for long term trouble free use. Mine was made in 1995, it needs the springs replaced, I have to pull it out, but I can't replace them myself, nor can I afford to get them replaced at a shop. I put the circuit breaker in the floor by my lift, there is a blade fuse or two under the plastic cover over the motor housing, only thing to interrupt operation for me was the breaker tripped.

What would cause the lift to keep going down after it's on the ground. Even pushing raise/up it still lowers?

[@seangriffon6502]

These Ricon lifts are the best. I prefer them over the Braun millenium any day. The ricons are so much quieter than the brauns. Does the ricon use hydrolics to bring the platform down to the ground? Reason i ask is because i dont hear the motor running while traveling down, but i do hear it while traveling up. The braun lifts you can hear the motor bring it down as well as up. If the ricons use hydrolics to bring platform down, then thats a great advantage as you are not waisting your vans battery as much. I know hydrolic elevators work same way. You have a loud ride going up as its using the motor to push tbe cylinder up to push elevator up shaft, but going down, the ride is so quiet. You can barely hear the air being exhausted from the cylinder. So no motor operation going down, but motor operation going up.

My 2001 Ricon only activates the pump for Up and Stow, For Down and Deploy it just opens the valve and gravity does the work.

[@Swissco6500]

Your Slappin some coughnut!!! Sickkkk

[@aliludovico]

Yup imp all day

[@pablolozoya4031]

Hello would you be able to help me out when i put the ramp into stowing position it does not go all the way up it just stops and hangs at a level you can hear the motor going but the ramp does not move

[@davidcaldwell6417]

I hàve a k series that will not deploy from stowed position. Where should I start looking can I jumper the pendant button

[@keelamitchell]

In the last part of your video you cut a wire to the solenoid. Which wire did you cut?

[@colin101981]

Thanks for this video, really helpful. Wonder if you can help? The yellow tail flap doesn't always deploy properly and when the lift is at ground level the flap is sticking up, too much for my wheelchair to go over! If I've got help, they can stand on it, it'll go flat then, but on my own, I'm stuck. Do you know of a way of adjusting that? Kind Regards and greetings from North Wales UK

[@aliludovico]

colin101981 there is Allen head on the back of the deployed arms hidden that u can adjust but try make sure u deploy on level ground to make this adjustment

[@missionron]

My 1997 Rikon will come down to the load position from while inside but it wont lower to tne ground! unless i turn the float to open a bit. It will lift and stow, just not lower to the ground. any ideas? no action at the remote switch.

[@aliludovico]

Check the pressure plate switch

[@TheOneKnownAsToms]

Hey my friend. That bridgeplate sensor, how do you adjust it?

[@aliludovico]

2 Allan heads there is 4holes to go up and down adjust accordingly so it doesn't get stuck

[@darrylfreeman3852]

Alejandro, I have a question for you. I have tried my best to locate this info before asking online. I have the Service Manual for my 2010 S Series Public Use Lift. I have not been able to locate wiring diagrams or other related info concerning the Ford fitted interface system or the lock out systems. Some of the lock out systems will be deleted. This bus will be used for an exterior cleaning business and the lift for pressure washers and other related equipment. Many thanks for your video and info! Darryl

[@aliludovico]

Ricon sent me a dongle full of all makes and models with diagrams when I did training can't find it anywhere maybe find a dealer that can forward u the info needed thats the easiest way

[@darrylfreeman3852]

@@aliludovico Wow, that was swift! Thank You Alejandro!

[@nappybiscuit]

Where do you get the tools to work on that lift?

[@Warren1814]

Sometimes my lift doors will open like normal but the lift won't deploy. I hear no clicking sound either sometimes. Which solenoid do you think it could be, The one closest to the passenger seat on the floor or the solenoid (the silver one) on the lift's post?

[@aliludovico]

Double check the pressure plate it's on the floor make sure it's working properly

[@Warren1814]

@@aliludovico Ok... I sure will.. You know i don't even remember seeing that on my lift at all.... I will have to check. But if i do have one, How can i test it to make sure it is working? I'm kinda new to this kind of stuff but i want to learn all of it i can. And thank you so much for taking the time to write me back.. 👍👍😎😎😃😃

[@aliludovico]

@@Warren1814 you can check the 2 wires that come from switch one is negative the other is 12+ or you can power down and do a continuity test make sure it goes on and off when weight is applied

[@Warren1814]

@@aliludovico Oh, oh ok..... Thank you so much for taking the time to explain that to me. I will have to see if i can get someone to test that for me because i cannot reach the Pressure plate from my wheelchair enough to test or even see the wires. Also, what if my van's lift doesn't have one of these pressure plates then what? just asking.

[@Warren1814]

@@aliludovico What can i do if i don't have that pressure plate on my lift?

[@EzIan311]

Dope, my pressure switch it triggering, guess I adjust the ramp cables. Thanks~! 10 haters... lol why?

[@lacroixtran7407]

Hey bro... Could you help me diagnose my ricon lift?

[@lacroixtran7407]

I can't find out what is wrong with my lift

[@aliludovico]

@@lacroixtran7407 what's going on with it?

[@carolknight-wallace1750]

My mother has an S2003 lift that will rise, but will not tip from horizontal to vertical once it is level with the platform. It will work with manual pumping. Is it the switch? Or electrical connection? In a small town and trying to determine if we can fix it ourselves.

[@aliludovico]

Carol Knight-Wallace check the seat belt switch or the pressure plate switch lift up that yellow portion or the flap they call it before pressing up for Stow

[@oker132002]

alejandro hernandez.....mine lift jus clicks n don't go up.....deploys perfectly....any suggestions????? help..

[@eriknussbaum5548]

Can the pressure switch be adjusted?

[@aliludovico]

only by the block with spacers located in the middle with spacers or on the side of the unit with the micro switches with a Philips head it adjusts the stow and up and down there are three on the side nit the plunger side

[@eriknussbaum5548]

thank you

[@eriknussbaum5548]

If the yellow plate is not flat..can this stop it from deploying down?

[@aliludovico]

it will deploy even if it's angled

[@aliludovico]

if u have to lift the yellow platform to go down then the platform needs to be adjusted on the sides of the yellow platform there are cables that can be adjusted also

[@lonniesailor7048]

My lift has no power lights don't work. where is the fuse?

[@aliludovico]

Should have been installed near the battery

[@aliludovico]

Also make sure u have ground sometimes it shakes off or losses causing blown fuses

[@j06c]

help. my lift will not deploy with control it only clicks. however i can deploy it manually and i can go up and stow with control

[@oker132002]

I'm havin similar problems but mine wont go up it jus clicks.... any suggestions its jus clickin

[@aliludovico]

Make sure pressure switch is not being pressed
