Having problems with 2 of the 4 connections for my BX23. I disconnected the front plow blade and I am trying to attach ny loader now. I cannot get 2 of the connectors to the joystick assembly to snap on. I push them on to the male piece (tractorside) but the spring loaded outside ring on the female connector (FEL hose side) will not snap outward to lock the connection. Is this because of too much hydraulic fluid pressure in the FEL line? I remember reading about releasing the pressure using a rag and was it a nail punch or something else. How do you guys remedy this? The FEL was taken off in the fall months and I did move the joystick several times before disconnecting. Thanks.
