Massey Ferguson 0B.00.11 – Mid Mount Valve Module: Loader Mid Mount Electro Valve Solenoid Low Amp Draw

The control module is detecting that the electrical current (amperage) flowing through the loader's mid-mount electro-hydraulic valve solenoid is lower than the expected operational threshold. A "low amp draw" typically indicates high electrical resistance, a failing solenoid coil (internal break), or an open circuit/wiring issue preventing proper current flow.

1. 1

   Inspect the wiring harness running from the Mid Mount Valve Module to the loader valve block for chafed wires, pinch points, or rodent damage

2. 2

   Disconnect the plug at the affected mid-mount valve solenoid and check for water ingress, dirt, pushed-back pins, or corrosion

3. 3

   Using a multimeter, measure the resistance (Ohms) across the two pins of the solenoid coil (a reading of 'OL' or unusually high resistance confirms the internal coil is burnt out)

4. 4

   With the key ON and the loader joystick commanded, verify that the harness is delivering proper voltage and has a solid ground

1. 1

   Power Down

   Turn off the tractor, remove the key, and disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shorts.

2. 2

   Locate the Valve

   Locate the mid-mount electro-hydraulic valve block (typically mounted on the right side of the tractor chassis, near the loader mast mounts).

3. 3

   Disconnect

   Unplug the electrical wiring harness connector from the faulty solenoid.

4. 4

   Remove the Coil

   Remove the retaining nut or retaining clip at the end of the valve stem that holds the solenoid coil in place.

5. 5

   Swap the Part

   Slide the old solenoid coil off the valve cartridge stem. Slide the new OEM solenoid coil onto the stem.

6. 6

   Secure

   Reinstall and tighten the retaining nut/clip (do not overtighten, as this can crack the plastic coil housing).

7. 7

   Reconnect

   Plug the electrical connector back into the new solenoid.

8. 8

   Clear Codes & Test

   Reconnect the battery. Use the tractor's dash menu or a compatible Massey Ferguson diagnostic tool to clear the 0B.00.11 fault code. Start the tractor and test the loader joystick to ensure proper hydraulic function.
