Title: WM recall & then oops
Post by: customdave on January 01, 2011, 10:18:03 PM
I did the WM recall or update on my mill yesterday, took 30 mins, they requested turn hyd pump motor turned 90 degrees from factory so there is no chance hyd line could touch big power terminal, worked slick tested a okay. Went to saw this morning what the heck no hyds, what the hay!, got the volt meter out & started elminating, suspected the micro swich , but after playing a bit the solinoid would rattle a tiny bit? I checked a connection I had distured doing the update , undid it , took right off looked no corrsion , but I scrapped it off with my pocket knife & put it back on & tighten, I thought I was going to be heading for the spare parts shelf, but I tryed the hyds & they worked just fine. Alls well that ends well!!....

I hope that you are lucky.  It's been my experience that anything that is easy to fix or fixes itself, generally comes back to see me.   :-\
