i have an 873 f series with ahc, and 1400 hrs. the problem started over a year ago. i'll be operating the machine an the lift tilt will lock up. i'll usually have to let it sit a while, start it back up and everything will work again. the lights on the ahc joy stick will blink five times. so last spring i brought it to my bobcat dealer and they put 2 new actuators in it. this summer it ran flawless and then late fall it started to act up again. now it is doing it all the time, i run it for about 5 minutes and then the lift tilt/ locks up.i have checked every electrical connection and looked for rub spots on wires.also, it mostly seems to happen when i lower the lift arms.any help would be greatly appreciated.
