1. Solenoid coil not electrically energizing. Check coil
for magnetism. Use voltmeter to test voltage at coil.

2. Solenoid spool mechanically stuck OFF. Remove
spool from hydraulic block. Inspect spool & block for
contaminants. Test. Restraint if necessary.

NOTES:

DO NOT RUN MOTOR WHEN SPOOL IS REMOVED FROM
BLOCK.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN COIL ON SPOOL. NUT IS TO ONLY
