Newest problem in the 873 POS!!!!! bics lights are all on now on a regular basis. bucket and lift act like they want to work but are stuck. feels like they are pined down . Before they would do nothing. any suggestions out there?

one of t days i couldn't get the skid steer to NOT WORK!!!! Had time to test stuff but hard to fix if it's not broken.

Dose anyone have a diagram or can tell me witch coil i am or should be jumping off of?

I brought the skidsttter over to the "working" side of the shop, lifted the rops and realized i'm not really qualified to do any thing under neeth there but hold a light or hand someone else tools.lol...WTF this sucks

Also going to try to bypass the coil to the back of the ignition like fishfiles suggested to wtf if i can locate the the right coil. wish me luck. im not really mechanically inclined.

Sorry!!! I have been swamped at work.. Yes my aux. light goes out and left light on left controler blinks. Im going to bring it into the other side of shop today and lift the rops. Ill take a measurement for the hose.

Have same problem as WTF and Wtf!!! Was wondering if it is still working. What coil did you jump off of and where is it located??? I need some help. PLEASE

I see alot of bobcat hyd issues. A friend of mine did some research for me a while back when this problem started I think he ended up on this fourm?? Is there a user with the screen name WTF that had same problem and is it still working???

they took apart and cleaned and tested all parts and switches in the system. changed coils and actuators. I think i threw up on the invoice. lol

They tried everything and finally threw their hands up. serial # 514124610

My 1999 bobcat 873 skidsteer has a mind of its own, bucket controls only work from time to time and usually they dont when i need it to. I have had it to my local bobcat dealer and they cant fix it. I now have more money into them trying to than i paid for it!!! I NEED SOME HELP PLEASE
