Aloha, my 310sj (2006) was operating fine yesterday and today the 4 in1 bucket wont ope or close...lever feels fine. I can see the rams trying to actuate (move slightly) but wont open or close. Everything else seems to be working properly. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Mahalo from Hawaii.

    Any thing bent. Electric over hydraulic? Pilot control?

    Can you see a spool (3/4" chrome rod) that is operated by the linkage and control handle, does it move the same as the other spools? And can you see the hoses "flex" when you move the control?
