I just got an e580 and need service manual or photo of circuit board above the dc to dc converter. The plug for the 48V input broke off and I need to see a photo to put it back correctly. A wiring diagram would be nice as well or a service manual.

I also have no reverse. The reverse beeper works but do not hear the solenoid for reverse

Could youtake photographs and give details. Several DC convertors were used during production. 48 volt schematic can be found here:
