I've got a tl150. was moving dirt and pulling trees all day yesterday. felt like it wasn't turning like it normally does most of the day. towards the end of the night i seemed to lose control of my lift and bucket. arms would lift no matter what direction i asked it to go, and bucket would only tilt down. only way to lower arms were pressure relief. let it sit for 20-30 mins while i checked on fluid and what not. worked normal again for a min or two and did the same thing. seemed like the engine was under a load even when hands were off the joys sticks. looking for some advice on where to look next. i do heavy repairs on light duty trucks. (3/4 and 1 tons). just not as familiar with the skid and information is pretty limited. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sounds like the aux hyd are stuck on... If relief valve was stuck open there would be no load on engine
Yup, is the floor pedal stuck on?
Sounds exactly like the first Taki I worked on; aux foot switch was busted, stuck on and buried in mud so you couldn't see it. Kicked my ass for a couple days since I didn't know it existed. Coworker hopped right in, dug it out and had it good to go in a couple minutes.
