I am trying to attach a bobcat dozer 80 to a terex pt60. I purchased the electrical cable that attaches to the skidsteer. I figured I could hook the cable directly to the valves, bypassing the computer(black box) in the dozer. The dozer has 2 valves one for the angle left and right, the other for tilt. Each valve has 2 solenoids on the valve stacked on top of each other. I thought activating one would send it in one direction and activating both at the same time would send it the other direction. I could only get the tilt to go one direction and not the other. The angle left and right I could not get to move. Also the dozer was bought at an auction, so if it was even working is unknown Maybe the computer board does more than I suspected. Any help would be appreciated

I got it working the hydraulic switch was in the wrong position, to reverse the flow. The valves stack on each other control the flow. bottom one will send it in one direction and the top sends in the other direction. removed the computer box on the dozer wired it direct. Pretty simple

Glad it was so simple and it's up and running.
