Bobcat T180 lift actuator down

[Markus]

I am new to the site. Have read alot of you guys problems and solutions. I have a lift actuator down on a bobcat T180 sked steer. Actuator part number is 7101672. I am sure someone here has fixed a actuator therself. I know the problem, but can not find the part. The part is Vishay Spectrol 157-299 01 1K 0607 Mecico potentiometer. Does anyone know where I can find this potentiometer. The part number must to have been changed. I have look all over the interent, even Vishay Spectrol website, with no luck. If anyone can help thanks in advance. T

in about 2 minutes. can hooked up to soft ware. running an actuator test. what that test will tell you, depeneds on certain factors. A actuator bad.B spool binding. usually evidenced by external leakage. as in coming out the cap on back side. creating hyd lock not allowing spool to return to neautral. or you can throw a 700.00 actuator at it or swap wires see if goes to tilt. which would indicate a bad actuator. let me regress. vissualy inspect control valve forexternal leakage. swap lift and tilt connectors does problem move? 32-31 TO31-32. ONE IS NOT FAR BEHIND THE OTHER.

Switched actuators around. This let me know that the actuator was down. Then took actuator apart and read pot with a ohm meter, that told me the pot was down.

Did you ever find the potentiometer or a replacement? Thanks

Looking for the potentiometer. Any idea what the new part number is or where to find them? Thanks
