Got only two problems left on my FLU, but I cannot seem to figure them out.
First is the clutch switch, when depressed it sometimes will not start. The switch is fine, continuity wise when depressed. When depressed, sometimes, I can hear a “click” on the passenger side of the engine and it ready for a successful start. Other times I will depress the clutch, I will not hear the click and it will not start. It will always start but sometimes it can take 50 times of depressing the clutch to get the starter area of the motor to “click” before pushing the starter button to get it to turn over. Trying to see of there is a sticky relay or something inside the starter going on but I cannot figure it out.
Second problem, I am new to the world of backhoe.
My boom cylinders work but will not hold position. The boom will go down with gravity if I let my hand off the lever. The part where you move the cylinder with the lever, control valve assembly (I think that is what it is called) does have a slow leak when sitting. The cylinders have no external leaks. The lever for the boom does make a louder hissing sound when move it compared to all other levers.
Maybe it is an internal leak on both cylinders. Rebuilding the boom cylinders seems simple enough. Will G105528 Case 580C boom cylinder kits work for the M35C?
Fixing the leak in the control assembly scares me, I cannot really find information on it or where I order parts to repair it. Has anyone here done this before?
Thanks!
