The Clark part #8049244 C is a specific electronic Display Unit or Indicator Module for a Clark forklift. It is a companion or secondary display, as indicated by “DISPLAY #2,” and is designed for the same series of forklifts as the previous unit.
Key Features & Specifications
-
Manufacturer: Clark (A major American manufacturer of forklifts and material handling equipment).
-
Part Number: 8049244 C. The “C” suffix often indicates a revision, a specific manufacturer (e.g., Curtis), or a compatibility variant. This is the specific Clark replacement part number.
-
Compatibility: Designed for the Clark C40/60 CRX series of forklifts (4,000 to 6,000 lb capacity, cushion tire, electric models).
-
Function: “DISPLAY #2” – This designation is crucial. It typically means this is a secondary display, often with a more specialized function than the primary display (#1). Common functions for a Display #2 include:
-
Drive System Status: Detailed diagnostics or status for the traction motor and controller.
-
Hydraulic System Status: Monitoring pressure, pump motor performance, or specific hydraulic functions.
-
Advanced Diagnostics: A dedicated display for service technicians to access deeper fault codes and system parameters.
-
Optional Feature Interface: It could be the display for a specific attachment or option on the forklift.
-
-
Type: This is an electronic instrument module, likely more specialized than the primary information display.
What is it used for? (Purpose)
This part is used for:
-
Specialized Replacement: To repair a specific, non-primary function of the forklift’s monitoring system that has failed.
-
Advanced Diagnostics: Provides detailed information that is essential for a technician to diagnose complex problems within the drive or hydraulic systems.
-
Completing a Set: If both Display #1 and Display #2 on a machine are faulty, both would need to be replaced to restore full functionality.
Who is this for? (Ideal User)
This is an even more specialized component than Display #1, intended for:
-
Advanced Forklift Repair Technicians and Master Mechanics.
-
Clark Equipment Dealers with deep parts inventories for complex repairs.
-
Large facilities with a large fleet of Clark CRX forklifts and highly skilled in-house maintenance teams.
Critical Considerations for a “USED” Unit
-
Precise Compatibility: The function of “Display #2” can vary even within the C40/60 CRX series. It is absolutely critical to match this exact part number to the specific model and serial number of the forklift. Using the wrong “Display #2” could result in it showing incorrect information or not functioning at all.
-
Unknown History & Condition: As a used electronic component, its functionality is not guaranteed.
-
Programming/Calibration: It may require specific programming or calibration with proprietary Clark diagnostic software to communicate correctly with the forklift’s main controller.
-
Diagnosing the Need: A mechanic would need to diagnose that the fault lies specifically with the #2 display unit itself, and not with the wiring harness or the main controller that feeds it information.
