Check the cause
Inspect the wiring harness and electrical connector at External Hydraulic Valve 5 for corrosion, bent pins, or wire chafing
Check the mechanical and electrical spool valve control cables for binding or damage
Use a diagnostic tool to monitor the live voltage and status of Valve 5, and attempt to clear the code to determine if it is a hard fault or an intermittent issue
Repair steps
Locate valve
Locate External Hydraulic Valve 5 in the rear hydraulic remote stack.
Disconnect battery
Disconnect the battery to prevent electrical shorts.
Disconnect harness
Disconnect the electrical harness from the valve solenoid/actuator.
Remove valve
If the valve is leaking or internally bypassing, remove the mounting bolts securing the valve to the hydraulic block.
Replace seals
Replace the spool valve O-rings/gaskets (using a spool valve gasket kit) if the issue is a pressure leak.
Replace valve assembly
If the electronic actuator or the valve itself has failed, replace the entire External Hydraulic Valve 5 assembly.
Reinstall valve
Reinstall the valve, torque the mounting bolts to OEM spec, and reconnect the electrical harness and spool valve cable.
Finalize repair
Reconnect the battery, top off hydraulic fluid if any was lost, and use a diagnostic tool to clear the 0A.51.13 code. Test the remote for proper operation.
