Troubleshooting Guide Prior to diagnosing your Power Plow, verify that all connectors (rubber connectors, plastic electric connectors, ground and power wire terminals, coil wire and extension harnesses) are free of corrosion and are well lubricated with white lithium grease. Insuring that all connectors are in good working order will save time in determining your snowplow attachment’s service needs.
Problem Probable Cause(s) Suggested Remedy Wing will not move (continued). Cartridge valve may be contaminated or damaged. A bent or over torqued cartridge will not allow the valve to move freely inside of the cartridge. Determine a damaged cartridge valve by reversing the driver’s side and passenger’s side cartridge valves one at a time. Replace valve if necessary. Plow will not angle. Review all probable causes above. NOTE: Verify coils S3 & S4 for angle functions.
