Dreaded electric spool valve problem.

[shumungus]

Ok, Massey 76 electric spool valves, one has decided to stop working. Have got to 6500hrs and this is the first to give bother. Are they repairable? Is there a common cause of the fault? Can they be sourced from a cheaper source than the MF dealer?

I'm not sure if you can source them cheaper but I understand that new electronic spools need to be programmed to the tractor with the dreaded laptop so that may limit options.

Your Massey dealer should offer a few options. New, reman, David King, change the valve control module and main on/off solenoid.

A new one is over 1300 from a dealer.
Any I have opened have been damaged due to moisture ingress.
Try David King as mentioned to see if they could repair it.
Also try Keith Murphy (masseysalvage) down in Wexford to see if he has any s/h or new
