Generally they open and close hydraulically, some have springs to keep them closed some don’t (mine doesn’t). Generally the non sprung type have a very minimal flow to the extent side of the hitch ram to keep it closed, mine however has full system pressure keeping it closed. Since the ram is at full stroke (hitch closed) the pipe is dead heading and eventually just fails.I am not familiar with hydraulic hitches but I thought they unlatched by by hydraulic power and locked by a sprung loaded action?
