Are the pipes on the wrong way round? Try listening for the solenoids working on the machine (clicking noise) with the engine off.
Just a thought, has someone speeded up the cross conveyor? it will rob all the oil even when switched off.

How would I make the solenoids work if the engine is off ?? I don’t think so because she worked all the functions back to front ( if I pressed share down she lifted it up Ect ect ) wen I tried it a few weeks ago but the pipes where on the right way it’s a strange 1

If not the fuse then check the earth wires next to the solenoids. Bit of a crude connector that held them all together on the one i used. cause me a fair bit of grief i seem to remember. Check all the pins on the plug into box too.

Check all the pins in the multiplug on the control box. We had a similar issue on a older 350. One of the pins had been pushed back and wasn't connecting.
Does it have a switch next the spool bank for swapping to load sensing? If it has been knocked it might cause an issue.

One other thing is the micro-switches in the box can stick which means that the spool stays open, its usually the steering or something visible but if its say the share down switch you might not notice.
