S70 Hydraulic Control Valve Open Circuit

[leighk]

Lift and Tilt stopped working (the rest of the bobcat functions normally). Flashing error code for Hydraulic control valve open circuit (4 flashes). Though it was the coil on the control valve solenoid however test got 10 ohms on the old coil and put some voltage through it and heard the click on the solenoid. Replaced it anyways however didn't fix the problem. Checked out all of the earths that I could possible find, fuses, relays etc. all seem to be in good order. Due to location of control valve solenoid connection (cab in the air) I haven't been able to test whether or not there is power/ground to the plug for the coil. The machine was working fine prior to this. Could someone please give me some advice? Thank you

Sadly, i think you need to trace the wires back to the controller, see if something has rubbed through a wire or broken it. As it says open circuit, even if you find the pins at the controller, you can run new wires, hopefully it's that easy.
