1. 1

   Retrieve and verify all active codes using a compatible Massey Ferguson diagnostic tool or interface device.

2. 2

   Inspect the electrical connections to External Hydraulic Valve 4. Check the wiring harness, connector pins, and grounds for corrosion, backed-out pins, or frayed wires (electrical faults are a frequent cause).

3. 3

   Inspect the valve body for visible hydraulic leaks or physical damage to the spool mechanism that could cause mechanical binding.

1. 1

   Relieve all hydraulic system pressure before servicing the valve to ensure safety.

6. 6

   Reinstall the valve, reconnect the hydraulic lines, and plug in the electrical connector.

   Reinstall the valve, reconnect the hydraulic lines, and plug in the electrical connector.

7. 7

   Clear the DTCs using a Massey Ferguson compatible diagnostic tool and test the hydraulic remote for proper operation.
