    Wire Connectors

    Working on a 20 yr old Hyundai 290LC-7 30 ton Excavator, removing the cab is not feasible or warranted...has access plates underneath. Besides, Mr. Rat chews equally on new wire as patched wire (& has been chewing on the newly placed rat poison). In lieu of tape, will be liberally "caulking"...

    Wire Connectors

    Are these satisfactory to use on heavy equipment? Cleaning up some "loose ends" under the cab (mostly 14-18 gauge pilot wires) from rat damage and the wire locations are difficult to get to for crimp connectors & heat shrinking. These look ideal & time saving to boot. Plan to wrap the levers...

    Deere 210G LC: where, precisely, is the Pilot Shutoff Solenoid Valve?

    After removing the access panel to first test for power, found the middle harness (#FYA00000663) cut near the connector. (PSA: Deere quoted me $1100 for this 5' 18 gauge two wire "harness"...made my own using heavier material for ~$10). Anyway, BINGO, hydraulics are flowing again.

    Deere 210G LC: where, precisely, is the Pilot Shutoff Solenoid Valve?

    Wow & THANK YOU! What a Christmas + birthday + Father's Day (+ Grandfather) gift wrapped in one, you just gave me. It's 3am here & if the machine wasn't a mile away, deep in the woods, I would run down there & lay eyes on it now. Again, thanks so much.

    Deere 210G LC: where, precisely, is the Pilot Shutoff Solenoid Valve?

    We've looked high & low for this: by the Shutoff Lever; behind the seat; around hydraulic pump; around swing gear hydraulics; engine; etc. with no luck. Have Service Manual ordered for Monday delivery but need to fix before then. We currently have no hydraulics. Thanks in advance. VIN...
