Hi there, I'm also having problems with my AFT, parking brake on, dash light on, child lock on, but when I press the reset button there is no bleep.
I've checked the fuse, is there a relay and how do I get the reset button out to clean it ?

There isn't any reset button for the AFT ? Which switch are you referring to ?
The AFT has its own computer with a relay on the same board.
With the engine running, handbrake on, and Brake light lit on the dashboard, you press the Up button on the roof lining above the drives cab, if a Beeping starts then the computer thinks everything is OK and should power on the two motors to start lifting. If there is no beeping then there is a fault. If it beeps but doesn't lift, the most common problem is corroded motors.
