Massey Ferguson B.02.02 – Mid Mount Valve Module: Loader Mid Mount Electro Valve Solenoid Low Amp Draw
Issue description
The electrical current (amperage) flowing through the solenoid coil on the loader's mid-mount electro-hydraulic valve is lower than the system's expected threshold, indicating high electrical resistance, a failing solenoid coil, a damaged wire, or a loose/corroded connection.

Check the cause
Inspect the wiring harness leading to the mid-mount valve block for chafed wires, pinched harnesses, or physical damage.
Disconnect the electrical plug at the affected mid-mount valve solenoid and check for water ingress, dirt, or corroded pins.
Use a multimeter to measure the resistance (Ohms) across the pins of the solenoid coil. High resistance or lack of continuity confirms internal failure.
Verify that the harness is delivering the correct reference voltage and has a solid ground when the loader joystick is actuated.
Repair steps
Power Down
Turn off the tractor, remove the key, and disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent electrical shorts.
Locate the Valve
Identify the specific mid-mount electro valve block and locate the solenoid throwing the code.
Disconnect Wiring
Unplug the electrical connector from the faulty solenoid.
Remove the Coil
Remove the retaining nut or fastener at the end of the valve stem that holds the solenoid coil in place.
Swap the Part
Slide the old solenoid coil off the hydraulic valve cartridge. (Note: You usually do not need to open the hydraulic system or remove the valve cartridge itself, preventing fluid loss).
Install
Slide the new solenoid coil onto the stem and secure it with the retaining nut. Do not overtighten.
Reconnect
Plug the electrical harness back into the new solenoid.
Clear Codes
Reconnect the battery. Use a compatible Massey Ferguson diagnostic tool or interface device to clear the DTCs from the system and test the loader joystick to ensure the code does not return.
Parts you might need
