Symptom

Hydraulic Drifting.

Diagnosis & fix steps

LOGIC: Arm Spool Pressure Sensor error. ACTION: Check voltage at the sensor (5V Ref). Swap with the Boom sensor to see if the code moves.

Red Seal field insights

Pro-Tip: If the sensor is fine, the "spool stroke" sensor is seeing the arm move when the joystick is in neutral. This usually means a weak centering spring in the main valve.
