GEHL 4840

Hello, We currently have a Gehl 4840 skid steer. First problem to occur is machine shut off and continuously popped circuit breaker 1. Tested everything in that safety circuit (switches etc.) and everything appears too be ok. Now machine runs but we have no tilt and lift hydraulics...What should solenoids be reading? Any help would be much appreciated??? Thanks so much

    Did you find what was causing your breaker issue and repair it? Whether you have a door or not, when checking safeties did the front door safety switch wiring get correctly installed/bypassed? That's usually the simplest way the arms get locked out.

    Yes we correctly bypassed the door switch and it ran but still no tilt or lift controls...When we unplug the bypass it pops the breaker. I wondering if the tilt lift solenoid is bad. All the solenoids are reading around 3.2. manufacturer site says they should be 7.2 +-3%... We currently have the whole harness on bench and cannot find a short in it...
