Default Re: TC35 3pt not working

FIXED!!

I called my dealer to get a new filter and I mentioned the problem with the 3pt. He said that unfortunately his expert mechanic had left for the day. While he was looking up the filter and the price on 5gal of F200 hyd. oil his mechanic happend to stop by.

He put him on the phone and I described the problem. He said it definitely was not the 3pt seals and couldn't be a relief valve since the loader was working. I asked if he thought it could be the filter and he said not likely as again the loader was working fine. Then he said there is a somewhat common issue where a plug in the FEL loader valve would sometimes back out and the 3pt would stop working. He said he had seen quite a few do this.

So I immediatley went out and took a look. If you pull off the rubber boot on FEL control there is a 7/8" plug. If you take it out there is a hex head plug under it. If it works loose the 3pt will not work. Sure enough that was my problem. Now its working perfectly
