The Genie 56.0012.0000GT is a genuine OEM Proximity Sensor built for Genie GTH series telehandlers. As a direct OEM replacement, this sensor is manufactured to the same specifications as the original, ensuring correct operation on the machines it serves. Compatible models include the GTH-4016R IIIB, GTH-4018R IIIB, GTH-4016R IIIA, GTH-4018R IIIA, GTH-1256, GTH-1544, GTH-3512SX, GTH-4010SX, GTH-2506, GTH-3007, GTH-3512 ACF, GTH-3713 SX, and GTH-3713 AU — cross-reference part number 56.0012.0000GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm the correct fitment for your unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Genie's original design and dimensional specifications, ensuring the sensor outputs the correct signal for the control system it serves.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Engineered to connect and mount identically to the original component, allowing a straightforward swap with no modification to the machine.
- Broad GTH Telehandler Fitment — Fits a wide range of Genie GTH telehandler models, including IIIA and IIIB Stage variants, SX configurations, and AU-spec machines.
- Consistent Signal Detection — A functioning proximity sensor provides accurate positional feedback to the machine's control system, supporting correct operation of the functions it monitors. A failed or drifting sensor can trigger fault codes or interrupt normal machine operation.
- Operational Safety — On aerial and load-handling equipment, accurate sensor feedback directly supports safe machine behavior. Replacing a faulty sensor with the correct OEM part restores the integrity of the detection circuit it belongs to.
A proximity sensor detects the presence or position of a mechanical component without physical contact, sending an electronic signal to the machine's control system when a target enters its detection range. On GTH telehandlers, this feedback is used to monitor the position of moving assemblies and trigger or restrict machine functions accordingly. When a proximity sensor fails or produces an intermittent signal, the control system may register a fault, restrict operation, or behave unexpectedly — making prompt replacement with the correct OEM part essential to restoring normal function.
