Morning hijacking thread but losing the plot with my loader 3rd service. Connected squeezy. Worked for about 10 seconds then stopped. Buzzing behind button on joystick, so some sort of shorting. Checked all wiring, which was very old and connections were worn so replaced. Again worked for a few seconds. Then stopped, no buzzing now and button makes a good click, so I think that is now not the problem. I noticed that both times I have for the loader to work briefly the battery had been disconnected for a while. I think solenoid is the problem. It appears to be stuck on. Is there anyway to get solenoid to release? It should should slide off valve? And yiu should be able to press in/out central pin on valve? Any help much appreciated. Could be wiring causing the problem as I followed connections already there, but 3rd service worked earlier in year with muck grab and as said it has worked a couple of times briefly with squeezy.It doesn't matter which one is live so long as one is. One of the others will go to the change over solenoid via a 7 pin plug near the loader hose connections. Don't worry about the ground (earth) I doubt it'll be in the joystick handle
