Main Boom Raise Extremely Slow
Diagnosis & fix steps
LOGIC: Boom Priority Solenoid Valve Circuit Low (Short to Ground).
ACTION: Measure solenoid coil resistance (~24Ω). Trace harness from the cabin fuse block through to the main hydraulic control valve bank for harness rub-through.
Red Seal field insights
Pilot Priority: The main machine controller shorts out power to the boom priority spool, starving the boom cylinders of combined dual-pump flow during digging.
