You could have pressure in the hose or fitting that keeps it from snapping on. You could try to bleed the fitting of pressure to see if that helps. Machine may have to be on when connection is made. I have same problem attaching snowplows on trucks. plowking

If the pressure is built up from expansion or settling it won't connect in the QC. I have put a rag over the stuck coupler and tap with a hammer to relieve the pressure. Once some fluid is released (why the rag is used) it couples up easy. My FEL will do the same thing no matter how much I relieve the pressure when removing.
Easy to remedy by just releasing some fluid
