I wanted to say hello as I am a new member, and wanted to share some info on a recent problem with my quick coupler. During trouble shooting I found no power at the coupler switch.Checked the fuses all good there. Started ringing wires and found a open circuit for power to the switch. Isolated the problem to a section of harness chaffed by a hyd line. Pictures below. Also found a ground issue at the cab to lower platform ground lug. When lowering the cab the ground to the switch would go away. cleaned the ground lug up.
