Massey Ferguson A.43.2A: External Hydraulic Valve 4 Issue

Issue description

Applies to these machines

  • 5710SL
  • 5711SL
  • 5712SL
  • 5713SL
  • T4
  • 6400 series
  • 6600 series
  • 7400 series
  • 7600 series

Check the cause

  1. Check hydraulic fluid (UTTO) level and condition for dark color, burnt smell, or milky appearance (water contamination)

  2. Test system pressure with a hydraulic gauge to pinpoint whether the issue is caused by the pump, the valve, or a restriction

  3. Inspect the solenoid connector and check the wiring harness for rub points

  4. Test the coil resistance and verify ground integrity

Repair steps

  1. Unstick the Valve

    If a control valve is physically stuck, you can sometimes release it by manually moving the pump control valve lever back and forth.

  2. Address Internal Leaks

    If internal pressure is escaping (causing symptoms like a dropping linkage), disassemble the system to replace worn lift cylinder seals, damaged O-rings, leaking control valves, or faulty check valves.

  3. Overhaul

    For complete failures, remove the hydraulic pump and control valve, clean or overhaul the components, and reinstall them.
