Product Description

The YL-550029273-R controller is the electronic control unit for Yale MPB040-E walkie pallet jacks (24V electric pallet jack model B827). This unit is a remanufactured OEM controller, originally designed by Curtis Instruments for Yale, and has been professionally rebuilt and tested to meet the original specifications. It operates on the jack’s 24-volt system.

The controller (sometimes called a combination controller) manages the pallet jack’s drive motor and lifting functions, regulating speed, acceleration, and hydraulic lift based on user input.


Core Deposit Required

All remanufactured controllers are subject to a core charge, which is refundable upon return of an acceptable core. The condition of the returned core will determine the refund amount – cores must be repairable and not physically destroyed to receive full credit.

Frequently Asked Questions


Q: Why is the unit sold as a remanufactured (rebuilt) part?

A: By offering a remanufactured OEM unit, we can provide a fully functional controller at a fraction of the cost of a new one. These controllers are originally made by companies like Curtis Instruments specifically for Yale. 

Remanufacturing also promotes recycling – it gives new life to the controller housing and circuit boards, rather than scrapping them. This is why there’s a core exchange: the old unit will be rebuilt for another customer.

Q: What is a core deposit, and how do I get it back?

A: A core deposit is a temporary charge added to the purchase of certain remanufactured parts (like this controller). The “core” refers to your old defective controller.

When you buy YL-550029273-R, a core deposit (fee) is added to the price. If you return your old controller core to us within the specified time, we refund the deposit in full. 

The returned core must be the same part number and rebuildable (not extensively water-damaged or physically shattered).

Q: Does this remanufactured controller require programming or setup once I install it?

A: In most cases, no additional programming is required. The controller will come pre-loaded with the factory default settings for a Yale MPB040-E pallet jack.


Q: What are the power specifications of this controller?

A: This is a 24V DC controller operating from the pallet jack’s battery (approximately 24–27 volts when charged).

Q: What’s the difference between a rebuilt controller and a brand new one?

A: Functionally, there should be no difference in performance. A rebuilt (or remanufactured) controller is a used controller that has been restored and refurbished. During remanufacturing, each controller is repaired with new internal components as needed (such as transistors and capacitors) and then tested on a bench to ensure it meets the original performance standards. 

A brand new controller is factory fresh. 

The main differences for the customer are cost and availability: rebuilt units are usually much less expensive and readily available, whereas new stock might be scarce or on long lead times.


Q: Are there any special steps to follow when replacing the controller?

A: While detailed installation instructions are in the service manual, some general tips: 

  • Disconnect the battery before any work – this is critical for safety, as the controller is high-voltage DC. 

  • When removing the old controller, label the wires or take a photo to ensure you reconnect everything correctly to the new unit (the terminals on the controller should be marked similarly). Often, controllers have multiple connectors, including a power connector and a logic harness. Make sure they seat firmly. 

  • After installing the new controller and reconnecting the battery, check for any fault codes that may have been generated. It’s good practice to operate the jack with no load first: test lifting and travel to ensure smooth operation.
