I'm having problems with the hydraulics on my EX 200-3. When I go to touch the stick to engage the hydraulics, it kills the engine instantly. It occurs on all hyd controls for the stick and bucket. It also occurs when I try to walk it. If you're very careful, you can spin it slowly. Thanks for any suggestions.

Hey. thanks for the info. the problem ended up being a faulty hyd press sensor.
